Deet (Dangers of DEET)


Unfortunately I have been selling this stuff ! I refuse to anymore !
read the article below and see why.
After reading this, Please read a post I added a few days ago. 
Mosquito Control Naturally



According to the Duke University Medical Center, DEET may cause: memory loss, headache, weakness, fatigue, muscle and joint pain, tremors and shortness of breath and there is concern about death of brain cells.
DEET also melts plastic, irritates skin and can cause seizures. Plus we are told not to use it when using other medications and be wary of using it on infants. Children and adults should use it sparingly and wash it off right away when we come indoors. Can we really get it all off before it gets absorbed by our skin and in to our bodies? Where does it go when we wash it off? Right into our drinking water. And we wonder about pollution and the increase in cancers.
There are lots of warnings and rules for its use. It smells bad too. I'd be afraid of going outdoors with this stuff on my body. Did you know that your skin is like a big mouth and it absorbs anything that you put on it? How can anything that melts plastic be any good for you? That stuff is poison!
