However, its regular and excessive use can be harmful for health. Liquid mosquito killers are best at chemicals that kill mosquitoes, but inhaling them can also have negative effects on our body. Dr. Imran Ahmed explained why we should reduce the use of such machines.
1. Health related problems
Liquid mosquito repellent machines contain many harmful chemicals, such as Prallethrin and Allethrin, which can enter our body through breathing. These can have a negative effect on the respiratory system. For people who already have asthma or breathing problems, this problem can become more serious.
2. Skin and eye irritation
The chemicals present in the liquid can also have a bad effect on the skin and eyes. Prolonged exposure to it can cause irritation, itching or red rashes on the skin. Similarly, burning or itching problem can also occur in the eyes.
3. Headaches and dizziness
The smell emanating from liquid mosquito killer can cause headaches or dizziness to many people. Especially if there is no proper ventilation in the room, its smell can be even more harmful.
4. Effects on the nervous system
Being in contact with a liquid mosquito repellent machine for a long time can also have a bad effect on the nervous system. Many times people complain of irritability, fatigue and mental stress, which can be caused by the chemicals present in the liquid.
5. Harmful for children and the elderly
Children and the elderly have weak immunity, and in such a situation the chemicals in mosquito repellent liquid can have a more serious effect on them. Children may develop allergies, respiratory problems and other physical problems.
