Well let me start by saying that the counter at the bottom of my posts is correct. I quit smoking just over 7 years ago. Why I started vaping would be another post but it amounted to the fact that I missed the relaxation of the act itself. I do NOT however use nicotine in my juices.
After smoking for 24 years, then picking up vaping I've noticed a few things that are strickingly different between the two. We have pets in our house and always have. I've noticed that, when I smoked, our pets would go out of the room or at least stay away from me while I was puffing on a traditional cigarette. Now our pets hardly even notice I'm vaping. It doesn't bother them one bit. I mean they don't even flinch.
Another thing that has come to light is bugs. I use to sit outside on warm summer nights smoking a cigarette and relaxing. All the while keeping the bugs at bay. Now they fly right up to my face as I exhale. It's almost like an attractant to mosquitos . I know it's just the CO2 I'm exhaling. But the fact is that the vapor doesn't bother them in the least.
All this speaks volumes. It's my belief (and is back up by many studies) that the anmial kingdom has, in most part, a built in defense mechanism that will, at the very least, tell if something is not good and should be stayed away from, should be looked into, or is something that they need not be concerned with. So if anmials aren't too concerned with the vapor we exhale the why are so many others so worried about it?
Just a thought.
