Health Tip: Take it Easy on Chemical Cleaners
By LadyLively on July 3, 2014
Using harsh chemical cleaners can be irritating for people who have asthma, especially children.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency offers these suggestions:
- Change cleaners if you find that one in particular aggravates asthma.
- When you have to use an irritating product, make sure the affected family member is not nearby.
- Run a fan and open all doors and windows when using the chemical.
- Read the chemical’s label and follow all instructions for use.
