I-Ethyl butylacetylaminopropionate, isithako sokugxotha iingcongconi, sisetyenziswa kakhulu emanzini angasese, ulwelo lokugxotha iingcongconi kunye nespray yokugxotha iingcongconi. Kubantu nakwizilwanyana, inokugxotha iingcongconi, amakhakha, iimpukane, iintakumba kunye neentwala ngempumelelo. Umgaqo wayo wokugxotha iingcongconi kukwenza umqobo womphunga ojikeleze ulusu ngokuvaleka. Esi sithintelo siphazamisana nesenzi see-antennae zengcongconi ukuze sibone ukuvaleka emzimbeni womntu, ukuze abantu baphephe ukulunywa yiingcongconi.

Amanzi endlu yangasese agxotha iingcongconi asetyenziswa kakhulu kuba kulula ukuwaphatha, anokuyigxotha iingcongconi nangaliphi na ixesha, anevumba elimnandi, avakala epholile kwaye ekhululekile, kwaye anefuthe lokunciphisa ubushushu oburhawuzelelayo, ukurhawuzelela kunye nokunciphisa ubushushu. Nangona kunjalo, xa sithenga amanzi endlu yangasese agxotha iingcongconi, kufuneka siqwalasele ukhuseleko lwezithako ezigxotha iingcongconi.
Phakathi kweemveliso zolwelo olugxotha iingcongconi, izithako ezisetyenziswa kakhulu zokugxotha iingcongconi yi-“Ethyl butylacetaminopropionate” kunye ne-“DEET”. I-DEET yayisetyenziswa kakhulu njengesixobisi seengcongconi emva kokuba isetyenziswe kuluntu ngo-1957. Nangona kunjalo, uluntu lwezenzululwazi lunamathandabuzo amaninzi malunga nokhuseleko lwesi sixobisi seengcongconi. Kwiimveliso zabantwana kumazwe amaninzi, kukho imiqathango yokongezwa kwe-DEET. I-US Food and Drug Administration ithi abantwana abangaphantsi kweenyanga ezi-2 ubudala akufuneki basebenzise iimveliso ezine-DEET; iKhanada ithi abantwana abangaphantsi kweenyanga ezi-6 ubudala abanakusebenzisa iimveliso ezine-DEET.

NgokubaI-ethyl butylacetaminopropionate, uphando lweWorld Health Organisation lubonisa ukuba ayinazo iziphumo ebezingalindelekanga kwimpilo yabantu. Kwangaxeshanye, ingxelo yophando ye-United States Environmental Administration ibonise ukuba nangona i-insecticide iyimveliso eyenziweyo, ukhuseleko lwayo lufana nolwezinto zendalo, kwaye ikhuselekile kubo bonke abantu, kuquka iintsana nabantwana, ngaphandle kokurhawuzelelwa kakhulu. Iyabola kwaye inokonakala ngokupheleleyo kwindawo engqongileyo ngexesha elifutshane kakhulu.
Nokuba ngamanzi endlu yangasese agxotha iingcongconi okanye amanye amanzi endlu yangasese asebenzayo, kufuneka asetyenziswe ngokuchanekileyo ngokwemigaqo yokhuseleko lwemveliso okanye iingcebiso zonyango kumaqela akhethekileyo afana nabasetyhini abakhulelweyo, iintsana, abantu abane-dermatitis okanye umonakalo wesikhumba. Kubantwana, akukhuthazwa ukusebenzisa amanzi endlu yangasese yabantu abadala ngqo. Kufuneka axutywe okanye asetyenziswe ebantwaneni.
Ekukhetheni iimveliso zokugxotha iingcongconi, abathengi ababekade bexabisa iimpawu kunye nevumba baye banikela ingqalelo ngakumbi kwisalathiso somxholo wezinto zokugxotha iingcongconi kwiimveliso kwiminyaka yakutshanje. Kwiimeko ezahlukeneyo zokusetyenziswa kunye nabantu abahlukeneyo, umxholo wezinto zokugxotha iingcongconi nawo wahlukile. Umxholo wezinto zokugxotha iingcongconi ezifanelekileyo kubantwana yi-0.31%, ngelixa owemveliso yabantu abadala yi-1.35%.
