The effect of using spray mosquito repellent (aerosol) upon the environment

Definition:
technically, aerosol is solid particle in the air or in the drop of liquid from high pressure system.
One of the human daily tools produces aerosol is spray mosquito repellent. The repellent is used
by most of people to get rid of mosquitoes. This is very effective way to be free from mosquito or
insect in a couple of minutes after spraying. However, using this can create environmental
destruction.
Insect repellent contains gas CFC (Chlorofluorocarbon) or Freon, which is one of the gasses
contributing on greenhouse effect. This is the most dangerous gas if we compare to others. It has
ten thousand times capability more effective than CO2 (Carbon dioxide) in trapping the heat in the
atmosphere.
Impact:
1. If CFC gas was trapped in the Earth, the gas can add the percentage of the earth temperature
increasing
2. The using of CFC in large quantity can produce Chlorine Monoxide (ClO) which has a
function to get the ozone layer being thinner. Every particle of Chlorine Monoxide can kill
100,000 molecules of ozone (O3)
3. Aerosol can produce hazardous gas which also impact on the plants. The plants use air to
help them doing photosynthesis. If the Oxygen is contaminated by aerosol, it will disturb
the process of energy absorbance.
4. Also it can give bad impact to animals, fish, and bird. When they are infected by the gasses
in the future or in a long period they are going to be endangered.
5. If all of these impacts happen for sure human as a part of ecosystem will also get the bad
effect. The man is the cause of this destruction finally will get the destruction for
themselves.

Solution:

1. Mosquitoes and insect are appeared because the environment is not clean. So before we
cure them it is better to prevent by cleaning the house regularly. For example, don’t hang
clothes everywhere, sweep the floor and yard, cover the things contains water when not in
used like water tub. Collect plastic and bottles rubbish from the ground.
2. If the mosquitoes are already in our room, we can use things like electric racket to kill
them.
3. If you want to sleep you can rub your skin using lotion to protect from mosquitoes.
4. Don’t forget to clean your body

Bad habit that we do by ourselves can create a danger, can you imagine that the bad habit is
done by so many people for a long time? For sure it will damage our earth as well as we kill
ourselves. So save our earth means we save our life as well.
