MOSQUITO REPELLENT ARE THEY SAFE OR HAZARDOUS

How mosquito bite should be prevent.

In India a physician advice patience to give preference to use of topical repellants or cover windows with net impenetrable by mosquito and should be keep closed. “Smoke- based repellent can trigger wheezing attacks though it is not clear to say if they cause the problem” the use of aerosol spray is not advisable for they are much liable to nose allergies or wheezing.

Also, added a dermatologist, that there has not yet been a link of topical treatment to skin irritations. “Though not harmful, but effective only when it is regularly used” he said.

But, doctors had concluded from a series of research that Pyrethrum used in most repellents could harm humans in the long run. R. Kulandai the director of institute of child health, India, reported that animal studies show nervous weakness as prior side effect. “We have no studies to confirm the harmful effect of repellents, the much formal deduction is that repellent enhances asthma and other allergic manifestation in people, majorly children.”

The age-old practice of mosquito nets is the safest to prevent oneself against viral infections spread by mosquito.
