EWAagoyin: Sniper was not meant for mosquito its an agricultural product for farm use. A lot of people use it because it's cheap and effective for mosquito. Be warned 1 Like |

Sniper is just a brand name for one of the top three agro chemical companies in Nigeria. It is the number one selling brand in Nigeria in its category. The active chemical in Sniper is DDVP which is responsible for both its efficacy for pest control and toxicity to human health. Many if not all top agro chemical companies in Nigeria like Jubaili Agrotech, Candel, Wacott etc have their brands. As a former staff of Saro Agrochemical, I can tell you that DDVP dominated products are multi billion naira products in Nigeria market. They sell like sachet water! Unfortunately, Nigerians abuse them. Out of ignorance and the desire to get rid of pestering creatures like mosquitoes and roaches, we use them as if they are safe. But the truth is, Sniper and other DDVP products are very toxic and can kill with ease. So my advice is always read instructions on the label of any product and be careful how you use them. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Thanks for this enlightenment.. Just a few days back I was cleaning my room and decided to use sniper in the process, I immediately noticed I couldn't breathe properly, before I knew it, symptoms became severe as I couldn't ever take a walk down to my bathroom without gasping for breadth... Was really curious as to what could possible be the cause... Decided to check the internet.. And here it was, hazadous sniper... I should warn my friends too... Thanks Guys |

This topic should be moved to front page so that people can be careful when applying sniper. I almost died of sniper last night and decided to do some research about it and came across this on nairaland. Sniper is very effective but really dangerous and should be handled with utmost care when being applied. Contact with the skin can even be fatal and should be rinsed off immediately with soap and water. Do not inhale the vapours to prevent stories that touch. Cc Seun and all admins, kindly move this to front page so that people can be aware of the dangers of indiscriminate use of sniper. 1 Like |

I've always suspected this sniper to be detrimental.. but what can one do? People use them alot and the fact that it's cheap is contributing to its gross misuse. I hate insecticides generally esp aerosolised ones. I hate to perceive them on the bed sheet, clothes, surfaces or any where else in the house. So even after use, one has to do a thorough cleaning, notwithstanding the insecticide used. No doubt o... me I've used sniper but I prefer to just place drops of it in a cotton wool and place in strategic positions in the room or put the drops directly to where I want them... though I know the method isn't as effective as spraying. Another thing people do alot is not spraying the whole house at d same time eg. spray parlour stay in the room, you spray kitchen and stay in parlour....meanwhile the doors to these parts of the house don't even close well. Generally, insecticides are dangerous. Add more cautious to usage no matter the type. None is risk-free. You can even make them your last resort... clean your environment, netted doors and windows, remove stuffs you no longer need from the house (stop saving rubbish you'll never use again), get rid of cartons... cockroaches like them alot, the more floor space and top spaces you have to clean, the less hideouts you'll have for rodents and cockroaches. 1 Like |
