Mozzie bites

[MissM]

DD1 needs to use polaromine when she's bitten by a mozzie. Dermaid might help stop the itching or stingoes

I used to get them badly as a kid and I would react terribly to them into adulthood - the only thing that worked was pregnancy and having kids, so I don't think that's an option for your DD

There are wrist bands that are like those rubbery material with citronella on them to repell mozzies. I also have an electric repeller in the kids room in the power point. The other thing that worked is like a metal clicker thing for the mossie bites (can't think of the name of it right nopw). Check to see if they are ok for kids as I know they weren't recommended in pregnancy but might be ok for a 4yo?

My eldest would react like that to mozzie bites too. I found using an antihistamine helped a lot with the itching and irritation and then some ice for the swelling. But now I use some Soothing Salve from Blissful herbs (Julie Doula makes it and she's an MPM here on BB) and it's brilliant.
