Mosquito Coils Risk Kids' Breathing | Nigeria News

Pediatricians are sounding the alarm: burning mosquito coils in kids’ bedrooms can seriously harm developing lungs. The smoke, filled with toxic particles and chemicals, lingers especially in poorly ventilated rooms — where children spend most of their time sleeping. With smaller airways and heightened vulnerability, kids face risks like coughing, wheezing, and asthma attacks. Studies show even six hours of coil use can spike pollution to dangerous levels. Experts urge parents to switch to safer methods — repellents, better airflow, and eliminating standing water — to protect little ones from invisible indoor dangers.
