A Purdue University study has found that indoor air quality can often be worse than outdoor air quality, largely due to common household products such as air fresheners, wax melts, floor cleaners, and deodorants. These products release tiny particles, known as nanoparticles, that can penetrate deep into the lungs and potentially affect health. The research highlights that products marketed as 'non-toxic' can still produce harmful pollutants, with wax melts creating air pollution levels similar to candles. The study emphasizes the need for awareness regarding the impact of household chemicals on indoor air quality.
The air inside your home may be even more polluted than outside, with common household products like air fresheners and cleaners significantly contributing to indoor air pollution.
Their tests revealed that wax melts actually pollute indoor air at least as much as candles due to their high concentration of fragrance oils that release harmful terpenes.
