Dengue: Tips for using repellent effectively
🧍 To apply on body
- Hold 15-20 cm from skin and spray in a slow, sweeping motion
- Spread evenly on exposed skin
- Spray on clothing to prevent bites through clothing (don’t spray into the air)
👧 To apply on face and neck
- Spray on palm of your hand and spread evenly on your palm
- Pat around face and neck, avoiding eye and mouth areas
- Do not spray or apply to eyes and mouth 🙅🏻♂️
💦 To remove repellent
- Rinse thoroughly to remove repellent residue
❗ Remember to
- Check the label and use according to manufacturer’s instructions
- Test repellent on a small area of the skin first (eg. inside of elbow) to ensure no allergic reactions
- Repellents containing DEET, picaridin, or IR3535 as the active ingredient are the most effective
Apply mosquito repellent regularly, especially if you live in a dengue cluster area, or area with more Aedes Aegypti mosquitoes
