What should I do if a dog accidentally eats mosquito coils? For dogs who accidentally eat mosquito coils, they must first deal with it in time. Try not to let the dog eat mosquito coils. If they have eaten, they should be sent to the animal hospital in time for gastric lavage and observation and treatment. At the same time, parents can also take antidotes to their dogs at home to prevent the toxic reaction caused by mosquito coils.

1. Epile-inducing

If the dog accidentally eats mosquito coils for a short time, the owner can give the dog soapy water or diluted hydrogen peroxide to induce vomiting to help the dog vomit out the mosquito coils. However, this method cannot be detoxified and can only inhibit too much toxin into the body. Therefore, after vomiting, the dog needs to be taken to the pet hospital for further examination and treatment, and then symptomatic treatment is performed according to the dog's clinical symptoms, and the metabolic speed needs to be accelerated.

2. Gastric lavage or enema

If vomiting fails or the dog has abnormal symptoms such as depression, vomiting, and convulsions, you need to take the dog to the pet hospital for gastric lavage or enema immediately, otherwise the dog may die at any time.

3. Notes

Because mosquito coils contain thrillin components, this type of substance will cause the dog's red blood cells to carry less oxygen, which will lead to poisoning. Therefore, if you raise dogs at home, you cannot use mosquito coils to repel mosquitoes, and you cannot use electromosquito liquid. If you accidentally use mosquito coils around your dog, be sure to open the windows in time for ventilation.
