10 creepy monsters hiding in the cleaning cabinet
Did you know that a lot of nasty chemicals accumulate in ordinary dust? Yes, even if you try to reduce your plastic use and shop consciously, most homes still have computers, TVs, phones, and cables that can release flame retardants and other chemicals. When examining dust more closely, researchers have found not only hair, skin flakes, and dust mites but also flame retardants, phthalates, and bisphenol A. Cozy, right? The best way to protect ourselves from these chemicals is to clean and keep our homes tidy. Vacuum (with a HEPA filter as close to 100 as you can find), wet wipe, and air out your home! If you want to keep your home free from these horrors, you can also choose to switch to eco-cleaning instead of buying conventional cleaning products. Eco-cleaning is both cheaper and more fun. But above all, you avoid a lot of harmful chemicals hiding in cleaning products. Choosing eco-cleaning is not only good for your health, it's also a very good deed for the environment!
