She spotted a mosquito 🦟
Added 2023-10-03 17:22:03 +0000 UTCWe have been having terrible issues with mosquitoes in our new rental house! I have learned that using eucalyptus and lavender scents help with mosquitoes but these new mega mosquitoes don’t even approach mosquito zappers! They leave bites that are as big as a baseball! I’m not sure where the super mosquitoes have come from, but they are tearing us up!
It’s important for breast-feeding, mothers to prevent mosquito bites as mosquitoes do spread diseases can cause a lot of issues for children, especially with allergies. Some education for you is that mosquitoes hate the color white they are more attracted to dark colors and supposedly they don’t like the smell of eucalyptus or lavender. There are also other essential oils they are turned away by.
Wearing perfumed lotions and hair products can attract mosquitoes from miles away. Perfumed lotions and hair products aren’t good for breast-feeding anyway so try to opt for unscented perfume free options especially while you’re breastfeeding and do your best to repel these horrible creatures from your skin and your home!
