What’s more annoying than a mozzie bite?
Getting bitten because you didn’t apply your repellent correctly!

Take time to apply repellent correctly. It’ll stop you from getting itchy mozzie bites that can sometimes make you really sick. Here’s how to apply:

• use repellent that contains DEET, picaridin or oil of lemon eucalyptus.
• apply repellent evenly to all areas of exposed skin – in a similar way to how you apply sunscreen, don’t forget your face!
• apply repellent AFTER you apply sunscreen
• reapply repellent regularly. This is important if you are outside during hot weather, or swimming
• apply repellent to young children – don't let them apply their own
• always read and follow the instructions on the label.

We’re expecting some hot weather which is more likely to make you unwell if you are over 65, have heart, lung or kidney disease, have diabetes, or are living with a severe mental illness. If you or someone you know is older or has one of these conditions, make sure:
o that the fan or air conditioner is working well.
o there are ice trays or cool packs in the freezer.
o medicines are stored at the right temperature.
o You drink lots of water. But if a doctor has told you to drink less water, check with them first.
o Remember to wear loose, light clothes, a hat and sunscreen
o Ensure you have a plan to call someone or to go somewhere if the heat is too much.

We’re seeing some really hot temperatures right now which can affect our health. If you need to go outside, and need to take young children with you, remember:

• Never leave young children alone in the car.
• Don’t cover the front of a pram or stroller with a cloth, even a thin one. Fresh air needs to get into the pram. If you do use a cloth, to be safe, it either needs to be kept wet, or to have a small fan attached.
• Check your baby or child’s temperature often and make sure they aren’t overheating.
• Offer them feeds more often, and if they are more than 6 months old, offer water between feeds.
• Protect their skin by dressing them in loose, light clothes and apply SPF 50+ sunscreen.

If you feel unwell or are concerned, visit your doctor or call healthdirect on 1800 022 222 for 24/7 free health advice. For language support call the Translating and Interpreting Service on 131 450.

If your little one hasn’t had the normal number of wet nappies, if their skin looks really red or pale, or if they are upset or won’t feed, they may be unwell. Get them cooled down as quickly as possible. If you are still worried, get medical advice.

Keep your baby cool this summer. Babies and young children can get too hot and dehydrate quickly. Give them plenty of water or extra milk feeds and keep them out of the heat on very hot days. Prams can become hot:
· Do not leave your baby to sleep in a pram in hot weather as airflow is restricted.
· Never cover a pram with a dry wrap or blanket because these can restrict airflow and increase the pram’s temperature to dangerous levels.

Instead, if you need to use your pram on a hot day, you can:
· Use the pram's canopy to provide shade to your child while still allowing airflow.
· Remove the back panel from a pram to help with airflow.
· Partly cover the pram with a wet and breathable cloth like muslin, making sure air can flow through. The movement of air through the wet cloth helps to cool the air inside the pram.
· Make sure to keep the cloth wet at all times and keep an eye on your child while they are in the pram. Find tips to keep your baby cool and safe this summer: heath.nsw.gov.au/beatheheat
