Which mosquito repellent product is safer and more effective?

Ethyl butylacetylaminopropionate, a mosquito repellent ingredient, is commonly used in toilet water, mosquito repellent liquid and mosquito repellent spray. For humans and animals, it can effectively drive away mosquitoes, ticks, flies, fleas and lice. Its mosquito repellent principle is to form a vapor barrier around the skin through volatilization. This barrier interferes with the sensor of mosquito antennae to detect volatiles on the human body surface, so that people can avoid mosquito bites.

Ethyl-butylacetylaminopropionate

Mosquito repellent toilet water is widely used because it is convenient to carry, can repel mosquitoes at any time, has a fragrant smell, feels cool and comfortable, and has the effect of relieving heat rash, itching and relieving heat. However, when purchasing mosquito repellent toilet water, we need to pay attention to the safety of mosquito repellent ingredients.
Among the products of mosquito repellent liquid, the most used mosquito repellent ingredients are “Ethyl butylacetaminopropionate” and “DEET”. DEET was widely used as a mosquito repellent after it was used for civilian use in 1957. However, the scientific community has more and more doubts about the safety of this mosquito repellent ingredient. In children’s products in many countries, there are restrictions on the addition of DEET. The US Food and Drug Administration stipulates that children less than 2 months old should not use products containing DEET; Canada stipulates that children under 6 months of age cannot use products containing DEET.

For Ethyl butylacetaminopropionate, the research of the World Health Organization shows that it has no side effects on human health. At the same time, the research report of the United States Environmental Administration pointed out that although insecticide is a synthetic product, its safety is equivalent to that of natural substances, and it is safe for all people, including infants and children, with less irritation. It is biodegradable and can be completely degraded in the environment in a very short time.
Whether it is mosquito repellent toilet water or other effective toilet water, it should be used correctly according to product precautions or medical advice for special groups such as pregnant women, infants, people with dermatitis or skin damage. For children, it is not recommended to use adult toilet water directly. It should be diluted or used for children.
In the selection of mosquito repellent products, consumers who previously valued brands and fragrance have paid more attention to the content index of mosquito repellent in products in recent years. For different use scenarios and different people, the content of mosquito repellent is also different. The content of mosquito repellent suitable for children is 0.31%, while that of adult products is 1.35%.
