Best mosquito repellent

5 replies

I'm taking my 11 month old baby on holiday to a hot country. Looking to be 37 degrees when we land and normally mosquitos are around.

What's the best mosquito repellent people have used ?

Why? That sounds hellish for a baby

I know it’s not always popular , but as someone who gets bitten to pieces, Deet is the only thing that works for me .

Sorry I meant to say 30 degrees, not 37

Partners family live there and they want to meet her. This is the only time I'll get a few weeks off before my mat leave finishes

I’ve used both Toddle and Vie in combination with mosquito repellent patches which I stick on their clothes, and it has worked pretty well. I would probably use a bit of deet if the mosquito situation was really bad though.
