We are travelling to Malaysia in April and I'm just wondering if anyone could suggest mosquito repellent that's safe for my 16 month old DD. As this trip is our first trip travelling with bub, DH and I would appreciate any suggestions from anyone. Thanks a lot.
I have a natural moisturiser that repels mozzies, DS hasn't had a single bite with it on. Which is saying something, we attract them like iron filings to a magnet. Not sure if it's good enough for use in Malaysia, never been there, but the vendor says she use tod live in Cairns and it's all they used.
It's called "bush essentials natural moisturiser". Let me knew if you're interested and I'll send you their email address.
HZ can I have the email address? Ds and I must be tasty as we always get eaten to death. We were tasty morsels at playgroup the other day. Couldn't believe they were even out at 10 in the morning!!
Citonella patches you attach to their clothes at the back work amazing, get them from the chemist you will never spay again.... they are smelly tho
Pm sent Helle. :)
You can get these cool things from camping stores for about $20 which use ultrasound to repel insects so are perfectly safe. They repel within a 3 metre radius and can be set on for 12 hours at a time meaning you would also be covered of a night. They just take little watch batteries so can easily be changed when flat.
Moogoo have one
Reeeeaally??:
Very interested indeed and the email address would be very much appreciated. Thanks and thank you every one for the prompt response.:
ohh if I could have the email address too that would be most fab. DS get the most enormous bites - doesn't bother him - but looks hideous!
Cheers
Rid or Aeroguard (can't remember which one) now has a specific 'kids' roll-on. We've used it on DD and our nephews and it's worked well with no issues for any of them.
It's called a tail swat body spray from Moogoo and it's deet free. For some reason they're not allowed to advertise it as insect repellent. I can't remember why but I think it might have something to do with the ingredients.
I have purchased an all natural mosquito protection from a market. I have heard of lots of people who use this and it is safe on babies under 6 months also.
It is called Vanilla Mozi, smells really nice.
Thanks Megs. Another safe natural product on my list.;)
I have seen citronella wristbands at the chemist that are supposed to be good for kids, haven't tried them myself though.
