HOW TO:

avoid mosquito bites

Encountering mosquito bites is a frequent issue while traveling, particularly in warmer regions. The strategies outlined on this page will assist you in preventing mosquito bites and understanding the appropriate steps for treating them if they occur.

Use insect repellents

Insect repellents do not kill mosquitoes but they should stop them landing on and biting your skin. They work against different types of insect bites.

Wear the right clothing

Clothing stops mosquitoes reaching your skin and biting. Mosquitoes cannot bite through loose-fitting clothing but can if clothing is tight against your skin. In hot climates, your clothing can be thin, provided it is loose.

Use a mosquito net

Check for any holes in the net before using it. If a hole is apparent, then this can be mended using for example a needle and thread.

Reduce the mosquitos

Try to make sure there is no puddles of water lying around outside your accommodation to reduce the opportunity for mosquitoes to breed.
