Cleaning up the air in your home

May 19, 2006

Detergents, bleach, cleaners, and other chemicals are usually stored

under the sink in a cabinet in the house. Every container will leach

the smell even if never opened. All the products you store in your

home are in the air. Put them in a big plastic container box and

store them outside out of the sun or just get rid of all the extras

and keep what you mainly use in the bathroom in a plastic container

box and keep the window open.

It really is that much of a hazard to one's health to breathe these

things in when you are home and when you are sleeping.

There should be no carpet deodorizers, room deodorizers, potpourri,

toilet bowl deodorizers used ever. Your nostrils are coated with the

synthetic oils in these products. They don't clean the air.

Real lavender and other herbs are safe and much more pleasant if you

want to use something.

Roach and ant traps and apartment pest control service should never

be used. Boric acid will work and is not harmful to smell. Use old

methods like putting down pepper, and just sealing cracks and holes.

Put a screen up in vents.

Fertilizers, oil, gasoline, and sprays should not be stored in a home

basement. Chemical smells go through ceilings. An open window and a

plastic container box helps if there is nowhere else to keep them.

When I first removed everything, I was amazed at how much clearer the

air was.

If you park your car in your garage attached to the house or under

your house, the house will pull in the exhaust fumes from the car.

Leave the garage door open a bit or keep the car outside for awhile

if it is safe to do so.

A good quality Ionizer will work if you can`t get to fresh air at

work or at home. But still remove what you can. They emit ions that

attach to chemicals in the air and pull them down. Aranizers are

subject to power surges.

You can use an ionizer at a desk or at home or in your car.

New furniture and new mattresses have Formeldehyde and other chemical

odors and they take a long time to deodorize. Carpeting chemicals

have changed but are still toxic.

New clothes have never smelled worse. If you use a small amount of

bleach in your laundry, it will eventually remove the " sizing "

chemicals. Never use it on expensive clothes.

I use plain bleach in the bathroom and I put it in a spray bottle so

I use less. Keep the window open. Tie a scarf over your mouth and

nose. Wear gloves. I wash the inside of the gloves with dish

detergent mixed with a little bleach before using them for the first

time.

Lysol comes in a spray bottle and can be used instead of bleach as an

anti-bacterial and degreaser. You can use it on tile, wood,

linoleum, the stove, etc.

I don't understand how using bleach and Lysol can

clean up the air in a home. Chlorine is toxic (why

else would one need to cover the mouth and nose with a

scarf when using it?), and the odor left behind can

linger for hours! Lysol has harmful synthetic

fragrance as well.

The two products might kill the germs, but so will

plain white vinegar.
