Chances are you have used a household product to eliminate ants and roaches, refresh the air, or clean off surfaces. However, did you know that some chemicals used to make household products are harmful to your health? Products that contain irritants, carcinogens and/or neurotoxins are all around us.


Examples of Unsafe or Defective Household Products

Not all household products are unsafe. However, there are many stored in kitchens, garages, pantries and other areas of a typical house. Here are a few of potentially unsafe household products from Toxin Checklist:

  • Aerosols - Inhaling fumes from this product can cause headaches, nausea, and dizziness

How To Check to See if a Household Product is Unsafe, Dangerous or Defective

You can check to see if an unsafe household product has been recalled at Household Products Database. Unsafe household products can contain chemical levels up to 70 times higher inside the home as opposed to outside the home. Homemakers and children are the largest sector of individuals who are subject to unsafe household products side effects. 


What are Hazardous Chemicals in Unsafe Household Products?

A hazardous chemical is defined as a substance that shows evidence that chronic health effects may occur from exposure. Many unsafe household products contain some form of a hazardous chemical. St Lucie County, Florida lists these products as being flammable, toxic, corrosive or reactive.

Commonly found in tobacco products, carcinogens are chemicals that are known to promote cancer with prolonged use. Found in alcoholic beverages, neurotoxins are chemicals that are known to unfavorably affect the nervous system and reduce mental alertness and coordination. Irritants can aggravate allergy symptoms and produce inflammation. These are found in air pollution and tobacco smoke. Mercury is known to damage the brain and nervous system and is found in fluorescent lamps.


Homemakers and Children
Homemakers have a 55 percent chance of having cancer than women or men who work outside the home. Close to 70 percent of all poisoning incidents occur in children ages 1-5.
