Anti-mosquito patches are made available in Manila, Cebu, Pampanga Angeles City, Subic and Clark Philippines answering the requests of guests and friends of Yats Leisure’s for more solutions to enhance the protection of children and loved ones against Dengue in Philippines.
Please read the following excerpt/article related to Dengue Fever which might enhance your knowledge about Dengue and the mosquito that spreads this virus.
- Vanilla Extract: A few different recommendations for this one, each contradicting the other. Some say to dab Vanilla Extract on your pulse points, others say to rub it all over your skin & dab your clothes. Some say the cheap stuff is what you have to use, others say the real, pure Vanilla is the only thing that will work. Some say to apply it full strength, others say you can dilute it with water and spray it on. Play around with Vanilla to see what gives you best results–there are plenty of believers for this one as a mosquito deterrent so I think there’s something to it.
- Garlic: This isn’t a favorite thing to do day-to-day, but if you’re going camping or hiking through heavily mosquito infested areas, try a garlic powder and water paste. Apply to pulse points, behind knees, on shoes and ankles and a dab or two on your cheeks or somewhere on your face and neck. Remember–keep out of eyes. And maybe stay out of public places too.
- Essential Oils: Mix choice of essential oils with rubbing alcohol, or witch hazel, or distilled water and spritz on body or directly on cloth to rub on body (shake before each use). Or add a few drops in baby oil or olive oil then rub on skin. You can also apply drops along a strip of fabric (cotton) and tie around wrist. *Make sure to avoid mouth and eye areas when using essential oils.

These mosquito repellents are the most child-friendly forms of mosquito-bite preventions available today in the Philippines. Although the odor is medium strong, it is much more child-friendly than sprays and lotions applied to the skin.
