How to choose Baby Mosquito Repellent?
Every summer is the most mosquitoes, we have to start facing the mosquitoes, in addition to the bite of the bag, the night mosquitoes moment buzzing also let the original because of the summer boredom more irritable mood. Therefore, before the arrival of mosquitoes in large quantities, be sure to do a good job in advance to prepare for mosquitoes.
Especially families with babies at home, more need to do a good job of mosquito repellent preparation, because the baby metabolism is much faster than adults, relatively high body temperature, and babies tend to be active, breathing rhythm is also relatively fast, mosquitoes follow the release of carbon dioxide traces, found on the baby.
Hot summer weather, and small baby metabolism, and favor active and active, so sweat secretion more, it is easy to attract mosquitoes. And baby's skin than delicate, easy to pierce, mosquitoes prefer to bite. In addition, the baby's alertness is low, the mosquito bite generally will not notice.
Common means of mosquito repellent
Mosquito incense
Advantages: cheap
Disadvantages: pungent smell, the need for open flame ignition there are certain safety risks, but also harmful to the human body. And mosquito ash is more trouble, not easy to clean up.
Mosquito liquid
Advantages: no smoke, no odor, no ash, no pollution; easy to use.
Disadvantages.
- The effectiveness of mosquito repellent will gradually decline with the use of the length of time.
- Although it looks more advanced than mosquito incense, but many of the ingredients are permethrin, the baby's eyes and breathing is not good, with a certain degree of toxicity.
Mosquito lamp
Advantages: environmental protection, health, do not release chemicals, completely physical mosquito, long life, no harm to people. The biggest advantage of the mosquito lamp is the use of physical methods for mosquitoes, very safe and reliable, high-quality mosquito lamp noise is relatively small, for the pursuit of mosquito effect, there are children's families, mosquito lamp is the most suitable choice.
Mothers who often struggle with mosquitoes know that mosquitoes are not the only kind, and different mosquitoes have different responses to different wavelengths of light, mosquito lights preferred full-band light wave lure mosquitoes.
How does the mosquito lamp work
The principle of the mosquito lamp is to open, the use of mosquito phototropism and sensitivity to temperature, lure mosquitoes into the mosquito lamp mosquito range, and then use the wind to inhale the storage box. And once captured, will be through the air dry or electric shock way to kill them.
Compared to mosquito incense, mosquito liquid and other ways of using chemical ingredients to kill mosquitoes, mosquito lamp air-drying, electric shock this purely physical way to greatly improve safety.
Especially families with babies, no matter how safe and harmless part of the chemical composition, are not as safe as no chemical composition.
And mosquitoes needed to exterminate pyrethroids, for families with pets is also very unfriendly. Take the cat, although permethrin substances can kill insects, insect repellent, but will lead to depression, appetite, salivation, convulsions and other symptoms of poisoning, and in serious cases, even lead to cat death.
The working principle of the mosquito lamp includes mosquito luring, mosquito absorption, mosquito extermination three steps.
Mosquito induction: In addition to the different ways to exterminate mosquitoes, mosquito lamps and mosquito induction method of distinction, mainly divided into photocatalytic induction, carbon dioxide induction, bionic body temperature induction mosquitoes, more high-end mosquito lamps will also contain a variety of induction methods.
Suck mosquitoes: mosquito lamp fan through the strong wind will be nearby mosquitoes sucked into the mosquito lamp.
Mosquitoes: Most mosquito lamps are using the fan's strong wind to mosquitoes have been pressed in the mosquito lamp, so that the mosquitoes dehydrated and dried to death. Some high-end mosquito lamp is the use of voltage network will suck in the mosquitoes instantly killed.
How to choose the mosquito lamp?
Mosquito lamp is mainly divided into three types: electric shock, inhalation, bonded, all three ways have their own specialties, the most common is the first two mosquito lamp. The current high practicality is electric shock + inhalation type, mosquitoes more efficient.
Inhalation type is mainly the use of turbine technology, strong suction will mosquitoes in the storage box, and then use the wind to air dry mosquitoes. But because of the air-drying time is longer, so there will inevitably be missed mosquitoes. Electric shock type is mainly the use of electric shock will be close to the mosquitoes to destroy, high lethality. Adhesive mosquito lure after the use of sticky glue to capture mosquitoes. Mainly to limit the movement of mosquitoes, but will not kill.
Lamp type
Mosquito lamp light source are relying on synthetic ultraviolet light waves, but the carrier is also the type of lamp will be different, common LED lamps and fluorescent lamps, LED light source is recommended, the composition of the LED light source of light beads is also the more the better. Light band is also a synthetic ultraviolet coverage of the band. For different types, areas of mosquitoes, the preferred wavelength is also different, so a single wavelength is difficult to cover a comprehensive, inevitable escape of mosquitoes, so the recommended wavelength coverage wide enough mosquito lamp.
Mosquito lure formula and temperature level
One is the formula of safe and harmless, in the induction of mosquitoes at the same time, the human body is healthy, especially pregnant women and babies at home; one is the simulation of our body temperature as high as possible, so as to attract more mosquitoes, away from us. Home is basically inhalation type, relying mainly on fan suction, so the more fan leaves the better. If the electric shock mosquito lamp, the voltage parameters of the grid should be careful, 1000V-1500V household has been very good, and then high, such as 2000V instead of household safety hazards.
Practicality
The larger the outlet, the more, the smoother, the better the effect of mosquito induction, mosquito absorption will be.
Applicable area: a house one of the best results, for large households with large living rooms, try to choose the applicable area of large.
Noise
As our mosquito demand is mainly at night, in order to eliminate the annoying buzzing sound and bite of surprise, the effect of mosquito control after going to sleep is particularly important.
The hum of the refrigerator work is about 35 decibels, whispering is about 45 decibels, the night work of the mosquito lamp in addition to the mosquito effect needs, but also can not disturb the sleep, or the loss is not worth it, so it is recommended to choose within 40 decibels of the mosquito lamp.
Power consumption
Small appliances used every day, may need to be on 24 hours, so the less power consumption the better. Mosquito lamp in the summer frequency of use is relatively high, so power consumption is also very important. Between this point, choose mosquito lamp can choose rechargeable, part of the mosquito lamp with solar heat absorption function, will be more environmentally friendly.
Safety
Electric mosquito lamp grid pay special attention to safety, there is a design to prevent accidental touch mainly, to avoid children curious fingers into.
The daily use of mosquito lamp
- It will be placed at the appropriate height
Because mosquitoes like to hover in the room in the high, so the mosquito lamp should be placed to avoid directly on the ground, and to be placed on the table more than 1 meter, mosquito induction effect will be better.
- Placed in a house a light
The vast majority of mosquito lamps for single room, to ensure the effect of mosquitoes, each room can be placed a mosquito lamp.
- Keep the surrounding environment dark
As mosquitoes tend to light, the best time to exterminate mosquitoes for the night, the room will turn off the lights, open the best effect of mosquito lamps.
