Answer

Why can carbon monoxide be harder to spot in Mallorca during summer?

In warmer months, people often keep windows closed for air conditioning or to keep heat out, which can reduce ventilation indoors. That can make gas buildup more dangerous in Mallorca homes with faulty appliances. Because the gas has no smell or colour, symptoms may appear before anyone realises there is a problem.
