Looking for natural mosquito repellent? look no further.
Mosquitoes are small, flying insects and we can find them all over the world. The female mosquito stings animals with hot blood to obtain protein. It uses it to make the eggs it lays. Like the bloodsuckers, they secrete saliva in the area of ​​the bite that prevents the clotting and sealing of the wound. The mosquitoes choose us as their “victim”, according to the smells from our bodies. As everyone knows, each person has his own special smell. The smells change during different periods of a person’s life (for example, in women during their menstruation).  Therefore, mosquitoes stung different people at different times.
Mosquito bites are irritating and cause itchiness. They may cause the transmission of pathogens in Israel only in isolated incidents, such as infecting the western virus. (2). The need for a Natural Mosquito Repellent is necessary.
