One benefit of using citronella as mosquito repellent is that it is safe and non-toxic to humans and animals. Although some people can have mild allergic reactions to the oil, even ingesting citronella will not affect humans it is simply broken down and passed out of the body through urine. (still have with adults supervision) when applying it.
Tips: I use this Citronella spray to Spray around the house in where usually open for mosquitoes like living room, bedroom.
One more thing, always keep your door closed and windows with curtains,
mosquitoes can't pass to it.

How Dengue really affects?
Symptoms and Causes.
Dengue fever is caused by any one of four types of dengue viruses spread by mosquitoes that thrive in and near human lodgings. When a mosquito bites a person infected with a dengue virus, the virus enters the mosquito. When the infected mosquito then bites another person, the virus enters that person's bloodstream.
Dengue fever affects the body by causing a high fever and flu-like symptoms. The virus infects your blood and causes a migraine-like headache, rash, achiness, queasiness, tiredness and fever. It can affect the blood, causing mild bleeding of the gums, and you may bruise easily.
How dangerous is the dengue fever? Severe dengue fever can damage the lungs, liver or heart. Blood pressure can drop to dangerous levels, causing shock and, in some cases, death.
Protect our Family, Always be cautious.. Lets clean, Check and be aware!
