DEETtētahi o ngā rongoā ārai pepeke torutoru kua whakamātauhia he whai hua ki ngā waeroa, ki ngā kutu, me ētahi atu pepeke whakarihariha. Engari i te mea he kaha tēnei matū, he pēhea te haumaru o te DEET mō te tangata?
Ko te DEET, e kiia nei e ngā kaimātai matū ko te N,N-diethyl-m-toluamide, kei roto i te iti rawa 120 ngā hua kua rēhitatia ki te US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Kei roto i ēnei hua ko ngā rehu ārai pepeke, ngā rehu, ngā hinu horoi, me ngā tauera horoi.
Mai i te whakaurunga tuatahi o te DEET ki te marea i te tau 1957, e rua ngā arotakenga haumaru a te Tari Tiaki Taiao mō te matū kua whakahaerehia e rātou.
Engari e ai ki a Bethany Huelskoetter, APRN, DNP, he kaimahi rongoā whānau i OSF Healthcare, kāore ētahi tūroro e aro ki ēnei hua, engari he pai ake ki a rātou ngā mea e hokohokohia ana he "taiao" he "otaota" rānei.
Ahakoa e hokohokohia ana ēnei ārai pepeke rerekē he iti ake te paitini, ko te nuinga o te wā kāore ō rātou pānga ārai pepeke e roa rite ki te DEET.
"I ētahi wā, kāore e taea te karo i ngā matū ārai pepeke. He tino whai hua te DEET hei ārai pepeke. O ngā ārai pepeke katoa kei te mākete, ko te DEET te mea tino pai mō te utu," te kōrero a Huelskoetter ki a Verywell.
Whakamahia he ārai pepeke whai hua hei whakaiti i te tūponotanga o te mākūkū me te kore whakamarie mai i ngā ngau pepeke. Engari he mahi ārai hauora anō hoki: Tata ki te haurua miriona tāngata ka pāngia e te mate Lyme i ia tau i muri i te ngau a te kutu, ā, e tata ana ki te 7 miriona tāngata kua pāngia e te mate mai i te putanga tuatahi mai o te huaketo West Nile e mau ana i te waeroa ki te US i te tau 1999. Ngā tāngata kua pangia e te huaketo.
E ai ki a Consumer Reports, ko te DEET te matū hohe tino whai hua i roto i ngā ārai pepeke ina neke atu i te 25% te kukū. I te nuinga o te wā, ko te teitei ake o te kukū o te DEET i roto i tētahi hua, ka roa ake te pānga tiaki.
Ko ētahi atu ārai pepeke ko te picaridin, te permethrin, me te PMD (hinu rēmana eucalyptus).
I kitea i roto i tētahi rangahau i te tau 2023 i whakamātautau i ngā rongoā ārai namu e 20, kāore i roa te roa o te ora o ngā hinu kakara i te neke atu i te kotahi hāora me te hawhe, ā, ka ngaro te whai huatanga o ētahi i muri i te iti iho i te kotahi meneti. Hei whakataurite, ka taea e te rongoā ārai DEET te pei i ngā namu mō te iti rawa i te ono hāora.
E ai ki te Tari Rehita mō ngā Matū Paitini me ngā Mate (ATSDR), he onge ngā pānga kino o te DEET. I roto i tētahi pūrongo o te tau 2017, i kī te tari 88 ōrau o ngā pānga DEET i pūrongohia ki ngā pokapū whakahaere paitini kāore i puta he tohu e hiahia ana kia rongoatia e te pūnaha tiaki hauora. Tata ki te haurua o te tangata kāore i pāngia e ngā pānga kino, ā, ko te nuinga o te toenga he iti noa ngā tohu, pērā i te hiamoe, te riri o te kiri, te maremare wā poto rānei, i tere te memeha.
Ko ngā tauhohenga kino ki te DEET ka hua ake ngā tohumate pūnaha io pērā i te haurangi, te kore whakahaere uaua, te whanonga pukuriri, me te ngoikore o te hinengaro.
"I te mea e miriona ngā tāngata i te Hononga o Amerika e whakamahi ana i te DEET i ia tau, he iti noa iho ngā pūrongo mō ngā pānga kino ki te hauora o te whakamahinga o te DEET," te kī a te pūrongo ATSDR.
Ka taea hoki e koe te karo i ngā ngau a ngā pepeke mā te mau i ngā ringaringa roa, me te horoi, te karo rānei i ngā wāhi whakatupu pepeke, pērā i te wai tū, tō māra, me ētahi atu wāhi e haere pinepine ana koe.
Ki te whiriwhiri koe ki te whakamahi i tētahi hua kei roto te DEET, whai i ngā tohutohu kei runga i te tapanga hua. E ai ki te Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, me whakamahi koe i te kukū iti rawa o te DEET e tika ana hei pupuri i te tiakitanga — kaua e neke atu i te 50 ōrau.
Hei whakaiti i te mōrearea o te hongi i ngā ārai pepeke, e taunaki ana te CDC kia whakamahia ngā ārai pepeke i roto i ngā wāhi e pai ana te hau, kaua i roto i ngā wāhi kua kati. Hei pani ki tō mata, rehuhia te hua ki ō ringaringa ka pania ki tō mata.
Ka tāpiri atu ia: "E hiahia ana koe kia taea e tō kiri te manawa i muri i te paninga, ā, ki te tika te hauhautanga, kāore he mumura o te kiri."
He haumaru te DEET mō ngā tamariki, engari e kī ana te Centers for Disease Control and Prevention kia kaua ngā tamariki kei raro iho i te 10 tau te pakeke e whakamahi i te ārai mate. Kaua ngā tamariki kei raro iho i te rua marama te pakeke e whakamahi i ngā hua kei roto te DEET.
He mea nui kia waea atu ki te pokapū whakahaere paitini tonu atu mēnā ka hongihia, ka horomia rānei e koe tētahi hua kei roto te DEET, mēnā rānei ka uru te hua ki roto i ō kanohi.
Mena kei te rapu koe i tētahi huarahi pono hei whakahaere i ngā pepeke, inā koa i ngā wāhi e kitea nuitia ana ngā waeroa me ngā kutu, he huarahi haumaru, he huarahi whai hua hoki te DEET (mēnā ka whakamahia kia rite ki te tapanga). Kāore pea ngā huarahi taiao e whakarato i te taumata tiaki ōrite, nō reira whakaarohia te taiao me te mōrearea o ngā mate ka puta mai i ngā pepeke i te wā e whiriwhiri ana i tētahi ārai pepeke.
