Keeping it on whole night is not advisable . Instead what you can do is Switch it on 30 minutes before bedtime, then switch it off when the baby enters the room — this avoids direct exposure and Keep it at a distance from the baby (not near the crib or bed).
Use in a well-ventilated room. don’t keep windows completely shut.
Do not use coils or incense sticks — these create smoke and are not safe for babies.
Also, If your baby is sensitive or has a cough/cold, avoid using liquid repellents near them.
Next Steps
Safer Alternatives are :
• Using mosquito net over the crib or baby bed.
• Dress baby in full-sleeved light cotton clothes.
• Use baby-safe mosquito repellent creams (only on clothes, not directly on skin) if going outside.
Health Tips
Watch for:
• Coughing or sneezing after switching on the machine
• Irritation in eyes or nose
• Restless sleep or unusual behavior
If any of these occur, stop using the repellent and consult your pediatrician immediately.
