What mosquito repellent can I use for a 3 month old baby and for myself who is breastfeeding?

Hello!

Unfortunately, there is no insect repellent recommended in Canada for children under 6 months of age. At this age, it is preferable to use physical protection such as long, light-coloured clothing

For those of you who are breastfeeding, using products containing Icaridine at a concentration of 20% or less, such as PiActive, is safe and often less irritating than those containing DEET. You can apply it for a maximum of 2 times a day

Did I answer your question correctly?
