It is called thirdhand tobacco (THT) to the deposit of gases and particles of second-hand tobacco (SHT) on dust, surfaces and objects in indoor environments, as well as in atmospheric particles in outdoor environments. They have an effect on the environment and air quality, remain in homes even up to six months after quitting, and can also react with oxidants and other components of the environment generating secondary pollutants. It is also recognized as a contaminant of closed spaces the second-hand vaping that is also deposited in closed environments causing third-hand vaping (THV)). There is no safe level of exposure to THT or THV, gradually acquiring scientific evidence of its important harmful effects on health. The total ban on tobacco and electronic cigarette consumption in closed places is the only one to fight against this contamination.
