Tori Klein • September 23, 2021
Everyone loves a good and refreshing scent in their house.
Usually people use scented candles, air sprays, reed diffusers and many other such components. But unfortunately, they not only spread a good scent in your house but a lot of harmful chemicals as well. According to the research, air fresheners and plug-in used by 75% of Americans contain phthalates, a very dangerous chemical.
Similarly, when the wax of the candle is burned it produces harmful chemicals such as toluene and benzene which makes your room poorly ventilated, dangerous for your children and pets. Therefore, it is not preferable to use these products to make your home smell good. Instead, you should opt for some eco-friendly ways to make your house smell good.
Go through this article to find the best eco-friendly ways which will make your home smell well without any side effects.
