What to do if mosquito bites cause redness and swelling? Mosquito repellent measures must be reliable, and the home environment is very important

Summer is the season for men to show off their charm and women to show off their seductiveness, but it is also the season when mosquitoes are rampant. One day, I wore sexy shorts, but unfortunately I was bitten by a mosquito and got a big lump. It was really embarrassing. What should I do if mosquito bites cause redness and swelling? How to prevent mosquito bites? Below, Encyclopedia Knowledge Network will teach you how to make mosquitoes go away quickly!

Improve your personal habits

1. Take a shower as soon as possible after exercise to keep your skin fresh. When it is hot, you will sweat a lot, so wipe off the sweat with a tissue or handkerchief in time.

2. If there are many mosquitoes in the daily activity area, you should wear long-sleeved clothes. This is not because there is an extra layer of cloth on your body, mosquitoes cannot use their mouth needles to suck blood. In fact, the mouth needles of mosquitoes are very sharp and can even penetrate cowhide and thick jeans. Summer clothes are simply not able to withstand a "bite". The function of clothes is mainly to cover up the smell of skin secretions such as sweat, so that mosquitoes cannot track you.

3. It is best to wear white clothes for outdoor sports, because white clothes have strong reflective ability and can repel Aedes mosquitoes.

4. In summer, do not not wear socks because you feel too hot. This will cause the sweat to evaporate quickly, attracting mosquitoes to attack other parts of the body. Wearing socks with good sweat absorption can not only effectively reduce skin moisture, but also cover up odors.

5. Do not use cosmetics with strong odors such as perfume. The strong fragrance is like a "rally" to mosquitoes.

Mosquito repellent measures must be reliable

1. Among all the methods of killing mosquitoes, mosquito nets are the simplest and most environmentally friendly mosquito repellent, but they can only be used at night when sleeping, so they have their limitations.

2. Mosquito coils are easy to use and widely used. The formula is mainly composed of insecticides with toxicity such as Tianduowei and others. Although the toxicity of mosquito coils has been tested by the national health department, the smoke produced after burning may still cause certain harm to the human body and the environment. Therefore, when using mosquito coils at home, attention should be paid to ventilation.

3. Spray insecticides can kill mosquitoes quickly and effectively, but mosquitoes can easily develop resistance. Therefore, every year, manufacturers of spray insecticides have to increase the efficacy of the drug or develop new toxic insecticides. Sprays are also dangerous to be inhaled by people. In recent years, improved mosquito killing products such as electric mosquito tablets and liquid mosquito coils have been launched. These products pay attention to the non-toxicity and pollution-free nature of the products in their ingredient formulas, but they need to be connected to a power source before they can be used, and there are certain safety risks.

4. Mosquitoes also like to smell odors like sweet wine, or stay in places such as milk bottles with milk stains on the bottom, so using sweet wine bottles or milk bottles with residual stains as "traps" can often stick mosquitoes to death. You can also use soap shreds + washing powder water, place a basin in the house, add some soap shreds mixed with washing powder water in the basin, and the next day, there will be some dead mosquitoes in the basin. If you continue to use this method every day, you will almost no longer need to spray insecticide to kill mosquitoes. Moreover, there will be fewer and fewer mosquitoes.

5. Mosquitoes are afraid of some flowers and the volatile smell of cooling oils and wind oils. Place one or two pots of blooming roses, mint, Milan, jasmine and other flowers in the bedroom, or place a few opened boxes of cooling oils and wind oils, the mosquitoes will be dizzy and then flee.

6. Mosquitoes are also afraid of orange light. In summer, install orange light bulbs indoors, or cover light bulbs with translucent orange paper, and mosquitoes will stay away. To enhance the effect, hang a bunch of chives under the light, or put a few scallions in a gauze bag, which will help repel mosquitoes.

The home environment is important

1. How do mosquitoes get into your home? Is your mosquito prevention work really perfect?

1) Exhaust vent : The exhaust vent of the oil fume extractor is so big that it is easy to be forgotten. The outlet should be equipped with gauze. The exhaust window should not be missed either.

2) Various water outlets : wash basins, washing machines, bathtubs, etc. Although some of these places have water traps, they cannot block mosquitoes due to the siphon phenomenon. Especially when it rains heavily and the water level rises, mosquitoes will come in from these places in large numbers. You can cover the openings with window gauze.

3) Door and window gaps : Sometimes the door gaps are too big to be sealed with door strips, especially the gaps under the door. Use window screens to pass underneath and fix the screens inside and outside. It is best to loosen them a little so that mosquitoes cannot get in. Also check the screens carefully to make sure there are no holes or gaps.

4) Sewers : Pay more attention to the hygiene of humid places such as sewers to prevent the breeding of mosquitoes.

5) At the door : Mosquitoes are very patient animals. They like to lurk at the door, waiting for you to open or close the door and fly in. So you should pay attention to the hygiene outside your home and avoid stagnant water, garbage and other environments that are easy to breed mosquitoes.

2. When summer comes, wiping your body with Huoxiang Zhengqi water and mopping the floor with mugwort water can effectively repel mosquitoes.

1) After taking a shower at night, mix half a bottle of Huoxiang Zhengqi water with a teacup of cold water, soak a towel and wipe it on your body. Although it has a medicinal smell, it is indeed effective in repelling mosquitoes. In addition to repelling mosquitoes, Huoxiang Zhengqi water can also prevent and treat prickly heat when mixed with water.

2) Boil mugwort leaves in water and mop the floor. If it is not enough, you can light some mugwort leaves in the mosquito coil box.

But both Huoxiang Zhengqi water and mugwort have a smell, so you can choose according to your preference. If you want to light mugwort, don't light too much. Be careful to prevent fire when lighting it, and keep people away. If mopping the floor with mugwort water works, it's best not to light it.
