Pick up a mop. Dust contains flame retardants, lead, and insecticides. Instead of removing toxins from your home, sweeping and cleaning could distribute them into the air. Avoid bug spray. Avoid using pesticides, which are dangerous chemicals used to eliminate weeds or unwelcome insects. Instead, keep food spills and crumbs away from your house. In the palace, spraying, dusting, or explosions use baits and traps. Avoid giving your pets chemical tick-and-flea collars or dips. Do not dry clean your clothing. Perchloroethylene (PERC), a substance commonly found in cleaners, can contaminate the air in your house. Look up forecasts for air quality. Avoid exercising on days with poor air quality and try to exercise as far away from industry and traffic as you can.
