Protect Yourself From Bites And Diseases By Using A Mosquito Repellent Patch

By Elena McDowell


Mosquito repellent patch use makes it easy for anyone to avoid nasty bites and diseases transmitted by those flying insects. Applying it is as easy as placing a sticker-like product on your skin. Containing a variety of ingredients, this innovative way of keeping away those pests is being preferred by many compared to a sprayed counterpart that's not as convenient to use.

The product is best placed on skin that is both clean and free of hair, such as on the shoulder blade and upper arm. By making sure that the item is securely in place, you can get the kind of protection you need. When the ingredients used have to be absorbed in order to work, you need to ensure that the adhesive side is completely flat against the skin at all times.

It's a good idea to use this innovative solution right after taking a shower or bath. You may also use a cotton ball with rubbing alcohol to remove dirt and grime on the skin, allowing the product to stay on for as long as it is needed. Some of today's patches are meant to be placed on clothes, backpack and others worn close to your skin.

What makes this sticker-like solution highly appealing to many is the convenience it offers. It can stay in the pocket without trouble until such time applying it is required. No rubbing on is necessary which can be messy and unsafe especially if done by an unaccompanied child. After putting this product in place, you simply have to wait for it to spring into action.

Some people may doubt the effectiveness of such product. No one can blame them as it can really be quite unbelievable that a very small sticker-like solution can offer protection against bites and diseases spread around by those pesky bugs. However, the secret why this innovation can deliver impressive results it the active ingredients found on the adhesive side.

When first introduced in the market, it relies on a chemical referred to as DEET. There's no denying that this ingredient works. However, it can produce unfavorable side effects most especially when it gets to the bloodstream. Investigations reveal that DEET may negatively affect the reproductive and nervous systems. Even in small concentrations, it can still be toxic. A lot of the sprayed repellents being sold nowadays still rely on DEET in order to safeguard their users from bites.

Majority of patches on the market these days are now relying on safe ingredients. In fact, many of these solutions are geared towards kids, making them more appealing with the use of eye-catching colors and prints. Some products rely on citronella and other essential oils like lemongrass and peppermint to ensure that those flying insects won't find biting appealing.

You may also go for a mosquito repellent patch that administers vitamin B1 or also known as thiamine. Found on the adhesive side, the nutrient is gradually absorbed by the skin and gets to the bloodstream. When expelled via perspiration, those flying bugs won't find your smell particularly attractive.
