< Back to the Household Chemical Encyclopedia General Household Chemicals and Products In Your Home
Below is a list of General Household Chemicals that might be commonly found in your closets and elswhere throughout your home. Most of these general housheold chemicals and products are chock full of multiple toxic chemical components that can contribute to serious indoor air quality problems and environmental damage. If you have any of these household products or hazardous substances in your house I strongly recommend you read the label closely for storage, disposal, and usage instructions. You should also give serious consideration toward isolating them from your living spaces. Better yet elliminate them completely and use natural or non-toxic substitutes. We will be adding information about many alternative, non-toxic, cheap, and easy recipes for many general household chemicals and products very soon. While we can elliminate most of these general household chemicals which are containerized, it is virtually impossible to elliminate the residual particles and volatile organic compounds which steadily vaporize or get released from surfaces and furnishings inside and around our home. Examples of these permanant sources of chemical contaminants include the paint on our walls; the furniture in our rooms; household appliances; the pesticides sprayed in and around our homes for termite treatment; fungicides incorporated into products for mold and mildew control; fire retardants incorporated for anti-flammability; insulation in our attics, walls, and floors; and the chemicals used to manufacture and treat the structural components of our homes such as dry wall, particle board, lumber, caulking, and carpeting.
Thus, in order to reduce these multiple household chemical hazards from our indoor air we must take a three pronged approach involving the use of:
We will also be adding specific chemical component information, manufacturer contact information, and MSDS information for many specific and general household chemicals in the near future.
Most of the general household chemicals we use aren't necessary. We've all been brainwashed by the marketers who spend billions on advertising into thinking each specific task requires a specific household product. This is rediculous and is why our environment and health is on a slippery slope downward (more on that coming soon)! Let's stop the gluttonous chemical cycle and break free from the herd mentalities upon which the chemical industry preys. Remember SOURCE CONTROL IS OUR GOAL New!
