When to spray clothing with anti-mosquito lotion or use a mosquito net?

If you're going to be exposed to mosquitoes for a long time, such as on a long trip to a tropical zone, it's advisable to also use a mosquito repellent spray on impregnated fabrics and mosquito nets.

Mosquito repellents for impregnating clothing are generally formulated with permethrin, a derivative of pyrethrin. Some current products offer up to two months' efficacy and are resistant to washing. Gloves should be worn when spraying mosquito repellent. It is best to avoid impregnating clothing or mosquito nets if you suffer from asthma or lung disease, as pyrethroids are irritating to the lungs.

Impregnated mosquito nets are another effective way of protecting against mosquito bites.

Ideally, they should be made of polyester, polypropylene or polyethylene, with 25 holes per cm². To enhance their effectiveness, they can be impregnated with a pyrethroid such as permethrin. Some are sold already impregnated. This anti-mosquito solution provides effective protection for pregnant women and babies, for example...

Mechanism of Action of Mosquito Repellent Lotion

Mosquito repellent lotions contain repellents that interfere with the olfactory receptors of mosquitoes. Applied directly to the skin, these substances mask the chemical signals emitted by the human body (carbon dioxide, sweat, lactic acids), preventing mosquitoes from locating their target. The protective barrier thus formed remains effective for several hours, depending on the formulation and active ingredients used.

Targeted protection: The lotion is designed to be applied to exposed areas of skin, offering immediate, localized protection against mosquitoes.
Easy application: Its fluid texture enables even application, ensuring complete coverage without wastage. Unlike some formats, it limits air diffusion, making it suitable for sensitive areas such as the face.
Adaptability: Mosquito repellent lotions are available in formulations adapted to different skin types (sensitive, dry, oily) and environments (urban, rural, tropical).
Long-lasting action: depending on the main active ingredient, lotions offer long-lasting protection, from 4 to 12 hours, even in demanding conditions.
