Summer has come, and mosquitoes are gradually increasing. Now people are not using mosquito coils as often as they used to. Instead, they still use electric mosquito repellents and mosquito coils. Because of the Internet transmission some time ago, the damage caused by a plate of mosquito coils is equivalent to The human body inhaled 120 second-hand smoke.
Everyone is afraid of the harm caused by mosquito coils, so they gradually stop using mosquito coils. So is this statement correct, and what is the scientific basis behind it?
Types of mosquito coils and their mechanism of action is the main reason for killing mosquitoes. This substance can enter the mosquitoes in the state of sol to paralyze the respiratory system of mosquitoes, resulting in suffocation and death.
Whether mosquito coils are poisonous
According to the composition of mosquito coils, they can be divided into herbal mosquito coils and chemical insecticidal mosquito coils. The former produces mosquito coils when burns . Contains DDT, pesticide ingredients will emit harmful substances after the mosquito coil is ignited.
If the human body inhales such substances for a long time, there will be dizziness , vomiting, and it should be reminded that the harmful substances of this chemical insecticidal mosquito coil will only be produced when it is not completely burned. When
completely burns , even if the human body inhales a small amount, it can be excreted through normal metabolism, so there is no basis that mosquito coils can cause harm to the human body like second-hand smoke.
Wrong use of mosquito coils is more harmful than second-hand smoke.
As we have said earlier, when the mosquito coils are fully burned, inhaling a small amount of mosquito coils will not cause much harm to the human body, but the most fearful thing is that some people use mosquito coils by mistake. To increase the impact of its toxins on and , here are some suggestions to help you use mosquito coils correctly.
First of all, many friends like to close the space to when lighting mosquito coils, thinking that after the concentration of mosquito coils increases, the effect of killing mosquitoes will be more significant.
Actually, this is not the case. As a flammable substance, mosquito coils will not get enough oxygen when burned under indoor closed conditions. Not only will the above-mentioned harmful substances be produced due to incomplete combustion, but also a large amount of carbon monoxide will be attached. Everyone knows the damage to the human body.
Therefore, try to open indoor doors and windows when lighting mosquito coils, and do a good job of ventilation, which can prevent these harmful substances from hoarding indoors and causing harm to the human body.
The time to light mosquito coils is also important. Most people spend a whole night with a single mosquito coil. Even if the room is well ventilated, they inhale mosquito coils throughout their sleep. When they wake up the next morning, their heads are often confused. Goofy.
Actually, we need to know that the most active time of mosquitoes is usually in the evening. At this time, if the mosquito coils are lit for two to three hours, the indoor mosquitoes can be completely killed or driven away, and the ventilation should be re-ventilated before going to bed. You can get rid of mosquitoes without inhaling mosquito coils.
In addition, for families with allergic reactions to mosquito coils, especially those with respiratory diseases such as asthma, mosquito coils should be used with caution, because a large amount of particles in the mosquito coils inhaled by patients will be adsorbed on the patient's alveoli, resulting in Difficult to expel from the body.
Accumulated for a long time in the past, it is easy to aggravate the patient's condition. It is recommended that such households use electric mosquito liquid or electric mosquito pads instead, which can not only effectively kill mosquitoes, but also cause little harm to the body.
