This is a shocking episode that happened on 13th May 2011 in Pune. This may be a good, useful lesson in safety for all of us to remember.

A housewife died due to burns sustained in the kitchen. Her husband too hospitalized for injury/burn while trying to rescue his wife.

The gas stove was on, cooking under process. The lady observed some cockroaches near the sink and grabbed a can of insect repellent and sprayed it..Near the gas stove, which was on/burning. There was an explosion and in no time the poor woman was covered in flames, sustained 65% burns. Her husband rushed in, tried to douse the flames and his clothes too caught fire. The husband is still in hospital, in the burns ward, still unaware that his wife has succumbed, dead on arrival.

I've been trying to gather some information on the insect repellents such as "Hit", "Mortein" etc. Are they inflammable? I guess they are, and the nano-particles spread extremely rapidly.
