Is it okay for pregnant women to use mosquito coils occasionally?

As summer arrives and the weather becomes hotter, there are more and more mosquitoes, which makes pregnant mothers inevitably upset. Sleep is reduced during pregnancy, and coupled with the constant harassment of mosquitoes, it is very difficult for pregnant mothers to get a good night's sleep. Generally, people use mosquito coils to prevent mosquitoes, but can pregnant women use mosquito coils? How should pregnant women repel mosquitoes?

Pregnant women should not use mosquito coils. If you only use mosquito coils occasionally, there is no need to worry too much if you don't find anything abnormal. Mosquito-repellent coils often repel mosquitoes because they contain a small amount of anesthetics and harmful substances. Mosquito-repellent coils can cause slight harm to humans, but pregnant women are a special group who need more warm care and love. Therefore, it is best not to use mosquito coils during pregnancy. If the mosquito coils are used in the room for too long and the indoor ventilation is poor, pregnant women may experience chest tightness, shortness of breath, dizziness, decreased fetal movement, and even intrauterine hypoxia of the fetus, resulting in deformities.

Electric mosquito coils, like mosquito coils, contain chemical compounds that are harmful to pregnant women and fetuses. There are two types of electric mosquito coils, namely electric mosquito coil sheets and electric mosquito coil liquid. But the basic principle is the same: absorb the insecticide into the paper strip or dissolve it in the liquid, and use the heat flow to evaporate the insecticide. Both release harmful compounds. Pregnant women are best not to use electric mosquito coils.

What is the safest way for pregnant women to prevent mosquitoes? 1. Mosquito nets and window screens: It is a relatively primitive and healthier method. Mosquito nets and window screens can not only keep out mosquitoes and prevent wind, but also absorb floating dust and filter air. Therefore, install window screens on the windows at home and install mosquito nets on the bed, which can prevent mosquitoes in both directions. 2. Mosquito repellent: The biggest advantage of mosquito repellent is that it is not easy to produce compounds that cause adverse effects on the body. It only uses electromagnetic energy to generate a layer of electric net on the surface of the net, hit the mosquitoes, and burn them. 3. Mugwort leaves or dried orange peels: Roll the dried mugwort leaves into a rope, light it and place it in the room. The smell of mugwort leaves and orange peels can repel mosquitoes.
