What to do if bitten by mosquitoes in autumn

Mosquitoes are animals that everyone hates because their main food is human blood. After biting the human body, they will leave an itchy bump. Some people with scar-prone constitutions will also be left with scars. It can be said that they are disgusting. Mosquitoes mostly live in hot summers, but there are also mosquitoes in the cool autumn. Moreover, after autumn mosquitoes bite people, the bumps left behind will be more itchy and unbearable. What should you do after being bitten by autumn mosquitoes?

1. If the wound has obvious redness and swelling after being bitten, please use commonly used household anti-inflammatory drugs. If your friends are bitten by the damn autumn mosquitoes and the wound becomes obviously red and swollen, apply anti-inflammatory drugs to the affected area in time to avoid infection and relieve pain.

2. If the baby develops symptoms such as fever after being bitten, please seek medical attention immediately. Infants' resistance is not as strong as that of adults, and mosquitoes carry a variety of infectious agents and bacteria in their bodies. In ancient times, they were the culprit for large-scale malaria outbreaks. Therefore, if a child is bitten by a mosquito and still develops symptoms such as fever after receiving general treatment, please seek medical attention immediately.

3. The methods for preventing and controlling autumn mosquitoes are the same as those for preventing and controlling summer mosquitoes. First, you need to clean up the stagnant water in the home, especially in dead corners such as bathrooms and kitchens, where there may be insect eggs. Plants grown at home should be sprayed with mosquito repellent to prevent mosquito breeding. Also, fall mosquitoes will focus on warm, humid areas, so keep an eye out for walls that meet those conditions.

4. Wash the mosquito bite with soapy water, which will relieve the itching within minutes. You can also apply toothpaste. The cooling and anti-inflammatory effect of toothpaste can relieve the pain and itching after mosquito bites.

5. If the bite is very itchy, you can flick it with your fingers first, and then apply floral water, wind oil, cooling oil, etc. to relieve the itch.

6. Apply or soak the bite with salt water, which can soften the lump and effectively reduce inflammation and relieve itching.

7. You can use aloe leaf juice to relieve itching. If the area becomes red, swollen and itchy after being bitten by a mosquito, you can cut a small piece of aloe vera leaf, wash it, break it apart, and apply it to the red and swollen area a few times to reduce swelling and relieve itching.

8. Break a garlic clove and use the garlic juice to rub the mosquito bite to relieve itching.
