All mosquito repellants have one thing in common:
A chemical called allethrin which is supposed to make our fellow citizens (mosquitos) uncomfortable; this is dispersed through a medium of kerosene in these sprays.
This allethrin is found in all mats or sprays or coils or whatever!
im not a doctor but I know for sure, this chemical has an adverse effect on the respiratory and nervous system of children.
Coughing, trembling hands are by and large noted with increasing recurrences all over.
A ayurvedic coil without this (tortoise claims!) or application of gingelly oil on exposed parts of the body or keeping cut cactii leaf(certain variety) would anyday be preferrable.
Achtung! or it could be your last goodnight!
