夏季防蚊,真的是一个大难题,尤其是家里有宝宝的,一不留神或者一觉醒来宝宝脸上身上就好几个包,瘙痒难忍,甚至还可能传染疾病。
所以如果你家里有宝宝,或者你自己就是一个特别招蚊子的人,可以通过下面三步来解决夏日驱蚊的难题和止痒消肿的困惑(点击可跳转至另两步):
如果家里宝宝小,也不常出门,也不确定那些驱蚊液、电蚊香安不安全,想找点更为稳妥的驱蚊方式,那么第一步 —— 物理防蚊,是比较合适的方式:
这是因为人造光源(如:火把、电灯)的光线与自然光线(月光、星光)不同,前者呈放射状,后者接近平行光。
昆虫通过保持与平行光线的夹角来调整自己的飞行路线,以保持直线飞行。而人造光源呈现放射状,干扰了昆虫的判断,与光源保持锐角飞行的昆虫就表现成螺旋状飞向光源。

以上总结的是安全实用的室内防蚊(物理防蚊)好办法。有家长带宝宝去户外时,会在婴儿车上加用纱帐,其实这并不是个合适的选择:一是比较闷,天热要预防中暑;二是视线受阻,影响宝宝外出体验。
那要是到了户外,或者有些时候不允许使用上面那些物理防蚊的办法,我们就需要用到驱蚊产品了。点击跳转到第二步——化学驱蚊。
