How do you use this 5/5 Tropical Zone Mosquito Repellent Lotion?

Whether during the day or at night, to protect yourself from mosquito bites or other biting insects (ticks, wasps), the use of skin repellents is strongly recommended. As a supplement, and especially in high-risk areas, clothing can also be treated by spraying or soaking it in permethrin.
For children who are not yet walking, the use of mosquito nets—preferably treated ones—on cribs and strollers remains the most effective method for preventing bites from these small flying insects known as mosquitoes.

• Apply Cinq-sur-Cinq Tropic to exposed areas of the body. 
• Reapply approximately every 8 hours or after a bath or shower. 
• MAXIMUM of 3 applications per day for adults 12 years of age and older. 
• For children aged 24 months to 12 years, a MAXIMUM of 2 applications per day. 
• This product is suitable for pregnant women.

Use the 5 sur 5 mosquito repellent spray on your legs: we recommend applying theinsect repellent to your clothingfrom the ankles to the knees to also prevent tick bites; apply it to your shoes as well (again, to protect against ticks).

Use the Tropic mosquito repellent lotion on your hands: it’s best to apply theclothing-based mosquito repellentto gloves in particularly challenging areas, such as swamps; you can also apply repellent to the back of your hands and wrists (which are sometimes briefly exposed when you reach out).

Use tropical mosquito repellent for the head: we suggest applyingclothing repellentto the balaclava or head covering you’re wearing, plus mosquito repellent on your face and neck.

If you’re hiking or out for a walk, spray a suitablepersonal mosquito repellent(for children or adults) on exposed skin, reapplying it about every 6 hours—or even every 2 to 3 hours if you’re sweating a lot!

To protect yourself from mosquitoes, the first step is to be vigilant about potential “larval breeding sites.” Larvae can be found in any standing water where mosquitoes can lay their eggs: swamps, tree hollows, old tires… The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends skin repellents, primarily those containing DEET, IR3535, or Icaridin.

The Culex Mosquito

Culex mosquitoes are the most common mosquitoes in metropolitan France. There are many species, including Culex pipiens, or the common mosquito, which we are all familiar with. Most Culex subspecies prefer to bite birds rather than humans or other mammals. They are therefore often considered less dangerous than Anopheles or Aedes mosquitoes. However, they can transmit serious diseases such as West Nile fever or Japanese encephalitis.

The Tiger Mosquito (Aedes albopictus)

There are approximately 260 species of mosquitoes in the genus Aedes worldwide. The Aedes mosquito takes its name from ancient Greek, meaning “unpleasant,” a name justified by the significant nuisance caused by this highly aggressive genus of mosquitoes with their painful bites.

The Anopheles Mosquito

Of the 3,500 existing species of mosquitoes, there are approximately 430 species in the genus Anopheles. The much-feared Anopheles mosquito is the species capable of transmitting malaria.

Ticks

Ticks are mites that have existed for about 140 million years. There are more than 800 different species. Known for parasitizing domestic animals (especially dogs), they can also use humans as hosts. Ticks can transmit serious, potentially fatal diseases. Humans can also develop allergies to their bites, even when the ticks are not infected.

Sand flies

Sand flies are very small insects that resemble tiny gnats. They can transmit serious diseases.

The Fly

First appearing 65 million years ago, flies have always been a nuisance to humans throughout history. The word “fly” is a generic term that refers to a large number of very different insect species found in the orders Diptera (horseflies, houseflies, tsetse flies), Ephemeroptera (mayflies), Hymenoptera (gall flies), Coleoptera (fire flies), Hemiptera (pee flies, which are actually bugs), and Mecoptera (scorpion flies).
