  • Resumen

  • In this episode of the Beehive Doc Talks, Dr. Blair Rolnick, a board-certified pediatrician and mother, offers crucial advice on preventing mosquito and tick-borne illnesses while traveling abroad with children. She stresses the importance of consulting the CDC and WHO websites for malaria-endemic areas and starting malaria prophylaxis early if needed. Key prevention strategies include using mosquito nets, appropriate clothing, avoiding scented products, and steering clear of mosquito-prone areas.

    Dr. Rolnick discusses selecting and applying insect repellents, highlighting DEET, picardin, and oil of lemon eucalyptus while advising against aerosolized forms. For ticks, she recommends using permethrin on clothing and gear, and emphasizes checking for ticks immediately after outdoor activities to prevent Lyme disease.
