Chapter 431 Hidden Dangers of Summer

"By the way, I was too busy with makeup just now and forgot to introduce myself. My name is Xu Junyu, and I'm the makeup artist for the film crew. Please take care of me." The female makeup artist introduced herself.

Zhang Zian shook hands with her. After shaking hands, some cosmetic powder was stained on his hands, which smelled delicious. He thinks that this woman is a bit like a sphinx, who likes to make people guess riddles. Although she won't eat her if she guesses wrong, the rewards she will give are not attractive—what does it mean to dress her up as a cute girl? ghost? He's not a bigwig in women's clothing!

After joking for a while, Xu Junyu said again: "Actually, I didn't name it like this at the beginning. It was summer at that time. I lived on the first floor of my house, and there were many flowers and plants around. When the indoor lights were turned on at night, the mosquitoes would come and go." It will drill into the house everywhere. My cat is unbearably disturbed. It has received a lot of red envelopes. It is so itchy that it rubs everywhere all day. When it rubs too hard, it can scratch the skin... look at its head I felt distressed by the appearance of the red envelope, so I renamed it 'Charlotte'. I suggest you, if you want to raise a Sphinx cat, you'd better live in a high-rise or a place where there are no mosquitoes."

"It's so pitiful, what should I do?" asked a girl who was in charge of odd jobs in the crew.

Xu Junyu shrugged, "What else can I do, light the mosquito coils, even if the mosquitoes don't bite, they will bite me..."

Zhang Zian interrupted: "Wait a minute, you mean to light mosquito coils in summer?"

"Yeah... But I just bought it this year, and it's only been a summer." She said, seeing that Zhang Zian's expression was not right, she asked again: "What's wrong with the mosquito coil?"

Zhang Zian shook his head and said, "If you have a cat, it's best not to light mosquito coils."

"Why?" She asked humbly.

"The main ingredient in mosquito coils, repellent, is harmless to humans and dogs, because after humans and dogs inhale it, the liver can metabolize this chemical substance, but cats can't, the cat's liver does not metabolize it. The ability of mosquito repellent, accumulated in the body for a long time, will cause irreversible damage to cats, and may even lead to death in severe cases." Zhang Zian patiently explained, "Of course, larger cats will have stronger tolerance. Relatively speaking, young cats are more dangerous."

It was the first time for the people present to hear this kind of statement, and they whispered to each other for a while, talking a lot.

"Are you serious? Mosquito coils are really harmful to cats?" Master Xu Jun couldn't believe her ears.

Zhang Zian replied affirmatively: "It's absolutely true. This is not my falsehood, but a scientific basis. People who have cats at home, it is best not to light mosquito coils unless it is absolutely necessary. If you are really bitten by mosquitoes No, you can light the mosquito coils at home, close the doors and windows, take the cat out of the house temporarily, and go outside to hide for an hour or two. After all the mosquitoes in the room are killed, come back and open the windows to ventilate the smell of mosquito coils. Do—of course, keep the screens open."

Ordinary cats are not too afraid of mosquito harassment, but hairless cats are very embarrassing. If you don't use mosquito coils, you will be bitten unbearably, and if you touch mosquito coils, you will be poisoned.

"Then what should I do? I have lit mosquito coils for half the summer, will my Charlotte be okay?" After hearing this, she believed that Zhang Zian was not lying, and almost cried.

Many people, including Lin Feng and Feng Xuan, tried to comfort her, but it didn't seem to work.

Zhang Zian said: "Don't worry too much. Mosquito coils are poisonous to cats, but you have to pay attention to the dosage, and different mosquito coils contain different concentrations of repellent. Your cat was fine at the time, which means Its tolerance is strong, and the toxicity accumulated in the body is not enough to cause symptoms of poisoning, as long as more attention is paid in the future, and mosquito coils are used scientifically, it will not cause serious problems."

She suddenly said: "That's right! I use baby mosquito coils at home, does it have something to do with it?"

"There is a certain relationship. The concentration of repellent contained in baby mosquito coils is relatively low, and of course the relative mosquito repellent effect is also low." Zhang Zian nodded.

She was finally somewhat relieved, touched her heart and whispered: "I was scared to death,

Almost accidentally killed my Charlotte..."

"In fact, mosquito coils are not particularly dangerous. What is more dangerous is the insecticide. If the insecticide is sprayed on the cat, it is likely to cause the cat to coma or even die on the spot. Families with cats should throw away the insecticide directly, so as not to cause harm. Be careful of misuse." Zhang Zian reminded again.

Among the people present, not only the female make-up artist is the only one who owns cats, but other cat owners are also afraid after hearing this. Who would have thought that mosquito coils and insecticides, which are necessary in summer, are the natural enemies of cats...

"No wonder, I remember once, after lighting mosquito coils at home, my cat was listless and wanted to sleep, as if he couldn't wake up. At that time, I thought the cat was sick, so I took it to the pet clinic. I didn’t find out why, maybe it’s because of the mosquito coils?” someone asked.

Zhang Zian nodded, "Yes, it should be right. But experienced veterinarians should ask you, after all, cats can't talk."

"No. The veterinarian did some random checks, didn't ask any questions, and then told me that there was no problem. The cat food I ate was not good, and forced me to sell a few cans of cat food..." The man said angrily.

"That's probably a quack doctor. Maybe he doesn't even have a medical qualification certificate. Next time, change to another clinic." Zhang Zian advised sympathetically.

"One time, my cat had diarrhea for several days in a row. I thought it was a bad meal or a cold. Looking back now, it seems that I lit mosquito coils. Is this the reason?" Someone asked.

"Maybe." Zhang Zian guessed, "Didn't you take the cat to the pet hospital or clinic?"

"I went, but after I went, I was treated according to the usual diarrhea. Although it was cured, I guess it was a temporary solution, not the root cause... I wish I had known earlier." The man was angry and regretful.

Knowing that her cat was not in imminent danger, Xu Junyu was a little relieved, but new worries arose. She waited for others to finish asking, and asked again: "Xiao Zhang, let me ask you again. According to what you said, neither mosquito coils nor insecticides can be used. What should I do if there are mosquitoes in summer? Don't tell me to move." ! My house is still repaying the loan, and I really can’t afford to move!”

Someone suggested that it would be better to keep the air conditioner on in summer? Turn on the air conditioner, and the mosquitoes will not bite people.

Xu Junyu just shook her head and smiled wryly, but didn't answer. Because it's hard for her to say in public that she can't catch cold or turn on the air conditioner when her menstrual period comes, and she has to endure it no matter how hot it is in summer. Wouldn't she be bitten to death by mosquitoes at that time?
