The monsoon brings relief from the scorching heat, but it also carries a hidden threat - Dengue. Protect your family from this mosquito-borne illness with these 6 essential safety tips.

Cover exposed skin, especially during peak mosquito hours (dawn and dusk). Opt for long sleeves, pants, and closed-toe shoes.

Choose a DEET-based repellent for optimal protection. Apply it as directed, especially on exposed areas and clothing cuffs.

Secure your home with mosquito nets on windows and doors to prevent mosquito entry.

Be aware of dengue symptoms like high fever, severe headaches, and body aches. Seek immediate medical attention if you suspect dengue.
