"He dj vu hou ia." Ma ka Horticulture and Home Pest News, ʻApelila 3, 1991, ua hoʻokomo mākou i kahi ʻatikala e pili ana i nā pōʻino o ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka "chalk insecticide" kū ʻole i ke kānāwai no ka kaohi ʻana i nā mea ʻino o ka home. Aia nō ka pilikia ma waho, e like me ka mea i hōʻike ʻia ma kēia hoʻokuʻu nūhou o ka California Environmental Protection Agency (i hoʻololi ʻia).

ʻŌlelo Aʻo i Hoʻopuka ʻia no ka Pesticide "Chalk": Pōʻino i nā Keiki

Ua ʻōlelo aʻo aku nā Keʻena Hoʻoponopono Pesticide a me nā lawelawe olakino o Kaleponi i nā mea kūʻai aku i kēia lā e kūʻē i ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka palaki pepeke kū ʻole i ke kānāwai. "He mea hoʻopunipuni kēia mau huahana. Hiki i nā keiki ke kuhihewa maʻalahi iā lākou no ka palaki hale maʻamau," wahi a ke Luna Ola o ka Mokuʻāina ʻo James Stratton, MD, MPH, "Pono nā mea kūʻai aku e pale aku iā lākou." "ʻIke loa, he mea weliweli ka hoʻolilo ʻana i kahi mea pepehi pepeke e like me kahi mea pāʻani - a he mea kū ʻole i ke kānāwai," wahi a ke Hope Luna Hoʻokele Nui o DPR ʻo Jean-Mari Peltier.

ʻO nā huahana - i kūʻai ʻia ma lalo o nā inoa kālepa like ʻole e like me Pretty Baby Chalk, a me Miraculous Insecticide Chalk - he mea weliweli no nā kumu ʻelua. ʻO ka mea mua, hiki ke kuhihewa ʻia lākou he pōhaku lepo maʻamau o ka hale a ua ʻai ʻia e nā keiki, e hoʻoulu ai i kekahi mau maʻi. ʻO ka lua, ʻaʻole i hoʻopaʻa inoa ʻia nā huahana, a ʻaʻohe kānāwai o nā mea hoʻohui a me ka ʻōpala.

Ua hana ka US Environmental Protection Agency i kahi hana kūʻē i kekahi o nā mea hoʻolaha a ua hoʻopuka i kahi kauoha iā Pretty Baby Co., ma Pomona, Kaleponi, e "hoʻōki i ke kūʻai aku ʻana i kahi huahana i hoʻopaʻa inoa ʻole ʻia e hōʻino ana i ke olakino lehulehu." Ke kūʻai aku nei ʻo Pretty Baby i kāna huahana i hoʻopaʻa inoa ʻole ʻia i nā mea kūʻai aku a me nā kula ma ka Pūnaewele a ma nā hoʻolaha nūpepa.

"Hiki i nā huahana e like me kēia ke lilo i mea weliweli loa," wahi a Peltier. "Hiki i ka mea hana - a hana - ke hoʻololi i ke ʻano hana mai kekahi pūʻulu a i kekahi." No ka laʻana, ua kālailai ʻia ʻekolu mau laʻana o kahi huahana i kapa ʻia ʻo "Miraculous Insecticide Chalk" e DPR i ka mahina i hala. ʻElua i loaʻa ka insecticide deltamethrin; ʻo ke kolu i loaʻa ka insecticide cypermethrin.

He mau pyrethroid synthetic ʻo Deltamethrin a me cypermethrin. Hiki i ka hoʻonui nui ʻana ke hoʻopuka i nā hopena olakino koʻikoʻi, me ka luaʻi ʻana, nā ʻeha ʻōpū, nā haʻalulu, ka coma, a me ka make ma muli o ka hanu ʻole. Hiki nō hoʻi nā hopena allergies koʻikoʻi.

Ua ʻike ʻia aia nā pahu kala i hoʻohana pinepine ʻia no kēia mau huahana he nui nā pae o ke kēpau a me nā metala kaumaha ʻē aʻe i loko o ka ʻōpala. Hiki i kēia ke lilo i pilikia inā waiho nā keiki i kahi pahu i loko o ko lākou waha a lawelawe paha i nā pahu a hoʻoili i ke koena metala i ko lākou waha.

Ua pili nā hōʻike o nā maʻi kaʻawale i nā keiki i ka ʻai ʻana a i ʻole ka lawelawe ʻana i ka palaki. ʻO ka mea koʻikoʻi loa i hana ʻia i ka makahiki 1994, i ka wā i hoʻokomo ʻia ai kekahi keiki mai San Diego i ka haukapila ma hope o ka ʻai ʻana i ka palaki insecticidal.

ʻAʻole pono e hoʻohana nā mea kūʻai aku i kūʻai i kēia mau huahana kū ʻole i ke kānāwai. E hoʻolei i ka huahana ma nā hale hana ʻōpala weliweli o ka home.
