Protecting Children from Mosquito-Borne Diseases

Why Children Need Extra Protection

Mosquito-borne diseases such as dengue, malaria, and chikungunya can affect people of all ages but children, elderly and pregnant women are more vulnerable to these diseases due to weak immune systems. Common Mosquito Breeding Spots Families Miss:

• Plant saucers
• Water storage containers
• Pet water bowls
• Unused buckets
• Balcony corners
• AC drip trays

Simple Steps Parents Can Take

1. Keep the home mosquito-free

Remove stagnant water and maintain clean surroundings.

2. Make All Out part of the daily routine

Consistent mosquito protection like All Out is often more effective than reacting after mosquitoes appear.

3. Be aware of symptoms

Seek medical advice if a child develops:

• Fever
• Fatigue
• Headaches
• Body aches

Prevention starts at home

The most effective protection often begins with small actions taken every day.

Parents can't control the weather, but they can take steps to reduce risk and create a safer environment for their children.
