To help you protect your skin and steer clear of these awful pests while away from home, we’d like to provide some expert tips about which products work best. Here is our expert advice about which products to buy – and which to completely avoid.
Anti-Mosquito Products: The Good and the Bad
The following supplies will do nothing to save you from those itchy bites:
- Smartphone Apps. If you search for ‘mosquito repellent’ in the app store, you will likely find several apps claiming to fend off these pests. While this would be an amazing tool if it were real, unfortunately, there is no such technology currently in existence.
- Citronella Candles. These candles have long been thought to protect homes from mosquitoes. The truth is, citronella candles offer no special benefits compared to any other candle, so there is no reason to seek out this product and spend your money.
- Protective Wristbands. There are a variety of wristbands on the market that emit sonic frequencies or mosquito repellents. This product will only shield the area where it is worn, so the rest of your body will still be exposed.
For actual protection from those itchy bites, here are a few things that can help:
- Chemical Skin Repellents. If a repellent contains DEET or picaridin, applying it to your skin will reduce mosquito bites.
- Lemon Eucalyptus Oil. While not as effective as chemical repellents, this is the only botanical alternative suggested by the CDC.
- Mosquito Traps. These are a decent way to kill mosquitoes and reduce their population around your home.
