Mosquito net umbrella is good option. Can apply eucalyptus or neem oil on wrist and legs, they are also mosquito repellants. Sunlight in the room where the child is sleeping so it is a natural way. Keep the doors of house closed from 4 to 7pm atleast. Mosquito repellant plants like tulsi, lemon grass, lavander, marigold Use mosquito rackets from the evening phase. Use room spray in the room. Keep it closed for an hour and keep the fans on.
