 ā„¹ļø NAFDAC Warns Against Using Dichlorvos (SNIPERĀ®) for Food Preservation.


NAFDAC has issued a strong warning to Nigerians about the dangers of using dichlorvos, specifically SniperĀ®, for preserving food items.  Dichlorvos, commonly used by traders to prevent spoilage, is highly toxic and poses serious health risks, including cancer and death.


Since 2019, the sale of small-volume dichlorvos (100 ml or less) has been banned, and the sale of larger volumes (one litre) is restricted to certified agrochemical outlets. The severe health implications of dichlorvos exposure can cause developmental issues, memory loss, reduced fertility, and potential carcinogenic effects. Traders and merchants are urged to avoid using unauthorised chemicals on food intended for human consumption.


The use of pesticides directly on food is not approved and poses significant health risks, such as dizziness, vomiting, and even death. NAFDAC advises grain merchants, market vendors, and farmers to follow manufacturer guidelines and consider safer alternatives like bio-pesticides. Consumers are also urged to report vendors who use dangerous chemicals to the nearest NAFDAC office, call 0909 763 0506-7 or send an email to reforms@nafdac.gov.ng
