Can pregnant women use electric mosquito coils?


I usually use electric mosquito coils, but now I am pregnant, and I am worried that it will affect the development of the fetus. Can pregnant women use electric mosquito coils?



Pregnant women are not recommended to use electric mosquito-repellent coils. Electric mosquito-repellent coils contain pyrethrum. This substance will evaporate into the air after heating. Pyrethrum has certain neurotoxicity. After mosquitoes come into contact with pyrethrum, It will cause damage to the nervous system, which will have the effect of killing insects. The use of electric mosquito-repellent incense by pregnant women may affect the growth and development of the fetus in the womb. If there are a lot of mosquitoes in the room, mosquito nets can be used to kill mosquitoes, which will not cause harm to the body. When mosquitoes cause skin itching, you can apply toilet water that does not contain musk ingredients to relieve itching.
