Sandeep Salvi, Chest Research Foundation Director said :
As a result peoples are exposed to a chemically complex mosquito-coil smoke
small particles (< 1 µm), metal fumes, and vapors that may reach the alveolar region of the lung.
Burning of one mosquito coil would release the same amount of particulate matter (PM)
2.5 mass as burning 75-137 cigarettes; the emission of formaldehyde from burning one coil can be as
high as that released from burning 51 cigarettes.
“Not many people know about it, but the damage done to your lungs by one mosquito coil is equivalent
to the damage done by 100 cigarettes."
To avoid exposure from harmful chemically complex mosquito-coil smoke, usage of
natural mosquito repellents is one of the best alternative methods.
Studies have shown that the best natural mosquito repellents usually contain more than
just one type of oil.
