Insecticides are quite common in daily life and are a type of pesticide used to kill pests. Usually, people use insecticides to kill flies, fleas, and other pests. Some mothers also buy insecticides to kill insects, but what if their baby smells insecticides when using them?
Firstly, if safe, low toxicity, and easily degradable insecticides are used, the baby's body will not be harmed if they smell them. However, the smell of insecticides can irritate the baby's respiratory tract. As long as the mother takes the baby to a place with fresh air in a timely manner and allows the baby to rest for a while, it won't be a big problem.
Secondly, due to the wide variety of insecticides, some insecticides can be irritating to the human body. If insecticides with strong odors and certain harm to the human body are used, the baby should be taken to the hospital as soon as possible and appropriate treatment measures should be taken according to the doctor's guidance.
Again, due to the baby's young age, it is not yet possible to accurately express physical discomfort. If you smell insecticide, it is best for mothers to observe the changes in their baby's body in order to understand their condition. If the baby suddenly cries, feels nauseous, vomits, or has diarrhea, the mother should immediately take the baby to the hospital.
Finally, when using insecticides, it is best not to let the baby stay indoors. The baby should be taken to a safe place first, and the amount of insecticide used should not be too much to avoid improper use that may irritate the throat and cause discomfort.
