The rainy season has already set in.. In a tropical country like the Philippines, Dengue Hemorrhagic fever ( a.k.a H-fever ) is prevalent. This disease is caused by the Aedis Egyptii mosquito. It is a day biting mosquito.
One sure way of fighting off this disease is to use an insect repellent. One that really works for me is the All Terrain Herbal Armor Insect Repellent Spray. It's deet-free and it is organic. It smells like lemongrass mixed with citronella oils. It's so safe that kids ( and adults likewise) can apply it onto their faces., and even on fabric. It's long-lasting too.
I got to know about it from my daughter's pediatric dermatologist. She recommended it to me. She said that other insect repellents are not so safe for kids to use. This is regardless of their ads saying that they are "specially formulated for kids". They contain ingredients that may be too much for our little one's liver to break down. We all know that whatever we apply onto our skin gets absorbed by the body through our pores.
