What are the most effective ways to repel mosquitoes in summer?

17-Sep-2021 AOGRAND
The most annoying thing in summer is not the sultry heat, but the mosquitoes buzzing around. I didn't pay attention to it, and the whole body was stung by mosquitoes, and it hurt and itchy. I can bear the bite. I am most afraid of biting a child at home. The big red mosquito bag will not go down for a few days. The child is itchy and crying. If you accidentally scratch the skin, it will be a disaster. Therefore, before mosquitoes attack us, we must eliminate them invisible. This requires us to master some reliable mosquito repellent methods.



First: Unreliable mosquito repellent method
1. Plant mosquito repellent method Nowadays, many people are pursuing a natural and pollution-free lifestyle, so there are a lot of products such as mint, orange peel, wormwood, qilixiang, ginger, garlic, and various products in Southeast Asia. A kind of "magic" herbal spice extract... In fact, their mosquito repellent effect is almost zero. For one thing, no effective mosquito-repellent ingredients have been found in any plant. Secondly, even if individual plants have mosquito-repellent ingredients, the concentration is too low to achieve any effect. Therefore, whether it is to put smelly plants at home, or wear or incense, it will not delay the mosquito biting.
 
2. Smear/oral vitamin B1
"Vitamin B1 can repel mosquitoes" has been rumored for a long time. It is really unreliable to spray vitamin B1 aqueous solution or oral vitamin B1 tablets to get rid of mosquitoes. First, some studies have shown that vitamin B1 has no effect on the number of mosquitoes landing on the skin. Secondly, there is no research to prove that mosquitoes do not like blood containing vitamin B1. On the contrary, if excessive intake of vitamin B1 is harmful to the body.
 
3. Ultrasonic mosquito repellent method
The principle of the ultrasonic mosquito repellent method is to drive away mosquitoes by using a mosquito repellent to emit a sharp sound that cannot be heard by human ears. In fact, different species of mosquitoes have different wing vibration frequency and sound wave frequency range, which cannot be generalized, and the mosquito repellent effect is not obvious.
 
So, what is the most effective way to repel mosquitoes? It is none other than mosquito repellent.
 
SecondAnalysis of four effective mosquito repellent ingredients
The working principle of mosquito repellent:
Mosquitoes target human odor (the carbon dioxide that people exhale and body surface volatiles). When we spray mosquito repellent on our body, it is equivalent to building a barrier on our body. This barrier will interfere with the chemistry of the mosquito’s antennae. The sensor's induction of volatiles on the surface of the human body allows people to avoid mosquito bites.
 
Effective mosquito repellent ingredients:
According to the recommendations of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), there are four common mosquito repellents: DEET, Picaridin, and Mosquito Repellent (IR3535, Imonin) ), lemon eucalyptus oil.
 
1. DEET
DEET was used by the army in 1946 and civilian use in 1957. It has been widely used for more than half a century. Its safety can also be guaranteed, and it has been recognized by the Centers for Disease Control, the American Academy of Pediatrics, and the World Health Organization. Its mosquito repellent effect can last up to 10-12 hours. Use mosquito repellent containing DEET, do not make it directly contact with damaged skin or use it in clothing, and the concentration should be controlled below 30%.
Suitable age:
Children 12 years old and above can use products with a concentration below 30%.
Children from 2 months to 12 years old can use the product with a concentration below 10%, up to three times a day.
Children under 2 months cannot use DEET mosquito repellent products.
 
2. Picaridin
Pacaridin is an effective insect repellent for mosquitoes and a substitute for DEET. Its mosquito repellent effect can last up to 8 hours. It is milder than DEET and does not damage plastics or fabrics. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends that you use mosquito repellents containing Pacaridin at a concentration of not more than 20%, and do not make direct contact with broken skin.
Suitable age:
Children over 6 months can use 5%~10% concentration products.
Children under 6 months of age cannot use mosquito repellent products containing Picaridin.
 
3. Insect Repellent 3535
Insect Repellent is a broad-spectrum and highly effective insect repellent. Compared with DEET, it is milder and less irritating. However, the mosquito repellent effect is not as good as DEET, and its mosquito repellent effect can last for 4 to 8 hours.
Suitable age:
It is suitable for children over 3 years old, and allergic babies should be used with caution.
 
4. Lemon eucalyptus oil
Lemon eucalyptus oil is a plant-based mosquito repellent, non-toxic and safe, and is currently the only broad-spectrum insect repellent with pure plant extracts recommended by the CDC. Suitable age: It is suitable for children over 3 years old and used with caution during pregnancy and breastfeeding mothers.
