What is Mosquito Repellent and Care
Mosquito repellents are substances designed to keep mosquitoes at bay, stopping them from biting and sucking human blood. Typically, they contain an active component that deters mosquitoes and secondary compounds that help to thin the active component to an appropriate concentration and facilitate its release as desired. Mosquito repellents are available in various forms, such as oils, lotions, sticks, and creams which are applied on the skin, as well as pump-spray and aerosol forms for use on clothing and skin.
