The better remedy for mosquitoes.

Mosquitoes live in wooded, grassy areas and over lakes and ponds. Rarely, they can transmit disease, such as the West Nile virus, which can cause inflammation of the brain, says David Kimberlin, M.D., a pediatric-infectious-diseases specialist at the University of Alabama at Birmingham.

He recommends to dab hydrocotisone cream, alamine lotion or a basing-soda paste onto itchy bites. A cool compress may help too. Furthermore, consulting your doctor if bites become infected or is your child develops a fever or a bad headaches is also a must.

Furthermore, keep your child indoor at dusk, when mosquitoes are most active. Apply repellent to her skin, and when it's very buggy out, try to dress in pants and a long-sleeved shirt, Kimberlin added.
