Health Tip: Beware of Bathroom Chemicals
By LadyLively on November 21, 2014
Household cleaners often are poisonous and their containers may be attractive to young children.
The Cleveland Clinic mentions these dangerous products that may be lurking in your bathroom:
- Toilet bowl cleaners, which often contain irritating bleach. Turn on bathroom fan when in use, and wear gloves to protect skin.
- Mold and mildew removers, which often include anti-fungal ingredients that are harmful if inhaled or swallowed.
- Drain cleaners, which typically contain harsh chemicals. Use with the bathroom fan while wearing safety goggles and gloves.
