Chemical odors in the home can be harmful to your health. According to the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology 50% of Illnesses are Caused or Aggravated by Pollutants. Chemical odors are given off from a wide variety of products. They include mothballs, paint, solvents, pesticides, fragrances such as perfumes and air fresheners, adhesives, smoke, dry-cleaned clothes, and cleaning agents, to name a few. Researchers say that these types of odors can cause a number of medical problems, including respiratory problems.
Effective green deodorizers will break down harmful chemical odors into harmless byproducts without masking them and result in a safer and healthier environment. By continually destroying chemical odor, you will improve your indoor air quality and prevent exposure to toxic and hazardous chemicals.
With a little investigative work, and using safe, non-toxic products, you can eliminate harmful odors and chemicals. The end result is a safe home that is healthier for you and your family.
