Natural Mosquito Repellents

Seasonal changes during this time of the year bring out mosquitos that irritate your skin causing rashes and redness along with diseases like malaria and dengue. Read on to find some natural repellants to keep those mosquitoes away and protect your skin.

Natural repellents and certain essential oils can be useful in keeping mosquitoes away, because they block their sense of smell, making it more difficult for these insects to land on a human to bite and drink blood.

Some of the natural ingredients that one can use to avoid having mosquitoes in home especially if you have a baby or a young child, they are:

1. Peppermint Oil/Extract/Hydrator

Another natural way of repelling mosquitoes may be using peppermint. It has been found that peppermint essential oil is effective against mosquito larvae and provided 100% protection against bites from adult yellow fever mosquitoes.

2. Lemongrass Oil/Extract/Hydrator

Lemongrass is a herb with a slight taste of citrus. It is a common ingredient in many Asian cuisines and tea. Lemongrass extract, or essential oil, has been found to provide protection against different types of mosquitos.

3. Citronella

This is one that most people know, but citronella is actually also the most effective natural mosquito deterrent. And if you want to keep mosquitoes away from you, cultivate citronella in your yard, make your own Citronella candles or take some citronella leaves with you because the scent is hated by the mosquitoes.

4. Tea Tree Oil

Tea tree oil is one of those oils that only sounds perfect for everything. In busy places you should put a little dab on your shoulder to stop the lice from landing on you. Yet you should still use it as an anti-inflammatory, and antiseptic, to stop mosquitoes. There's a lot you get from this one product.

5. Rosemary

Rosemary is a lovely herb and is also very heavily fragrant. That is why it would come as no surprise that mosquitoes don't like it to. You can take the herb about with you, cultivate it in your yard to deter mosquitoes, eat it to deter mosquitoes, or even use essential oil as a simple and compact way of combat off mosquitoes.

Few products that may help repel mosquitoes are:

1. Mamaearth Natural Mosquito Repellent Patches for Babies with 12 Hour Protection

2. Mamaearth Natural Mosquito Repellent Gel with Citronella and Lemongrass

3. Mamaearth Anti-Mosquito Fabric Roll-On
