In a larger room, the concentration of the freshener reduces since the air spreads it around, but in smaller rooms and tighter spaces, the concentration is higher. This will mean there are higher chances of headaches, breathing difficulties, and other health problems when using plug-in air fresheners in small rooms. Do Plug-in Air Fresheners cause Indoor Pollution?

Plug-in Air Fresheners Safe And Non Toxic? (The Scary Truth) Are Plug-in Air Fresheners Safe And Non Toxic? (The Scary Truth)

Hi, I'm Andy and that is my beautiful wife and business partner in the photo with me. I’m a married father of two and for the past 5 years me and my wife have loved scented candles, wax melts and all things that make our home smell divine. Also, essential oils used as fragrances can harm cats and dogs. These furry friends are allergic to some essential oils, and inhaling them harms their health. If you have a pet, you should go for better air freshening options. Conclusion

Oh Oh Oh I've just realised that I don't need to take it out of the plastic holder I can take the bung out anyway :-) but I'll still look for reserves. Since the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) does not demand companies to list the chemicals and fragrances used in products like air fresheners, companies can include any chemical without listing them. Most air fresheners state their ingredients as ‘fragrance’ and ‘odor eliminator,’ which doesn’t leave room for consumers to know what ingredients are used.

Cats and dogs are more sensitive to smell than humans and will be more affected by the toxic chemicals in air fresheners. These air fresheners can affect a cat’s kidney and liver in the long run. Your cat might cough, sneeze, vomit or become less active after inhaling air fresheners. Yes, plug-in air fresheners contain several toxic chemicals that are harmful to health when inhaled. Amongst these toxins, the most common ones found in air fresheners are phthalates, formaldehyde, naphthalene, Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), 1,4 dichlorobenzene, and toluene.

However Proctor and Gamble seem to no longer sell the refills as I can't find the vanilla ones anywhere on line. Phthalate is a toxin commonly associated with congenital disabilities, hormonal imbalances, breast cancer, and reproductive abnormalities. TV I'll also take a look at those stores too as I can see the plastic becoming weak with constant removal.......

Formaldehyde is a human carcinogen that irritates the airways and throat and causes asthma and respiratory problems. No, it is unsafe to use a plug-in air freshener in a small room. While the general use of plug-ins can be debatable, using them in a small room is very unhealthy. This is because there is no proper ventilation in smaller rooms; thus, the air freshener will not be properly dissipated, causing excessive inhalation of these toxic chemicals.Toluene is a toxic substance that causes developmental and reproductive abnormalities, and liver and kidney damage. Plug-in air fresheners are not only unsafe for humans, but they are also unsafe for pets. In fact, pets tend to be more affected by them. Plug-in air fresheners are plugged close to the floor, so pets will inhale more of it since it’s closer to them. TGD,you may have hit the nail on the head!! I didn't realise that you could get the little bottles out of the plastic casing! I thought it was a sealed unit but with a bit of a wiggle it comes out and I can remove the bung and fill them up YAY!!!

When these chemicals are dispersed into the air, they mix with the air in the home and pollute it. When we breathe them in, they can cause several minor health issues like headaches, coughing, allergies, and throat irritation, and over time, they can lead to major health problems. I will be straight on the P & G in the morning but hold out little hope. OH well I guess it's a lesson learnt............ Plug-in air fresheners are not a safe option for the home. They contain some toxic chemicals that cause health problems to humans and pets. Plug-in air fresheners also cause indoor air pollution, and when used in a room without proper ventilation, you get to inhale more of these chemicals. However, some people feel the amount of toxins they produce is not alarming, especially when used minimally in a large room. Nevertheless, it is best to use safer options to freshen the air, like baking soda and oil diffusers. Do Plug-in Air Fresheners contain Toxic Chemicals?
