Are You Living In A Toxic Home?

You’ve just cleaned your house and have a good feeling that everything is clean and fresh.  Or is it?

Sorry to spoil all those warm fuzzy feelings, but you may have made your home dirtier.

Would you let your kids play with toxic chemicals?  Then why do you let your baby crawl all over a floor that has been wiped with them?  There are more dangerous things than a little juice or jelly on the floor.

Take a look at these statistics:

Over 90% of poisons exposures happen at home.

Common bleach is the #1 household chemical involve in poisoning.

Many common cleaners and even air fresheners contain organic pollutants and are 2 to 5 times higher inside your home than out.

Spend 15 minutes cleaning scale off shower walls and you could inhale three times the “acute one-hour exposure limit” for glycol ether-containing products.

Increase the risk of your kids developing asthma, the most common chronic childhood disease, by using cleaners that give off fumes linked to the risk of getting asthma.

1 in 13 school age children have asthma.  From 1980-1994, the rate of children under five increased more than 160%.

Pound for pound of body weight, children drink more water, eat more food and breathe more air than adults, making them substantially more vulnerable to chemical toxicants that are present in water, food or air.

If you have an average home in the U.S., you generate more than 20 pounds of household hazardous waste each hear in the form of toilet cleaners, tub and tile cleaners, oven cleaners, and bleach products.

Educate yourself about what you bring into your home.
