Chemical Free Toilet Bowl Cleaner

Toxic Dangers of Toilet Bowl Cleaners:

The most acutely dangerous cleaning products are corrosive, acidic toilet bowl cleaners, according to Philip Dickey of the Washington Toxics Coalition. Corrosive chemicals can cause severe burns on eyes, skin and, if ingested, on the throat and esophagus. Ingredients with high acute toxicity like bleach and ammonia, produce fumes that are highly irritating to eyes, nose, throat and lungs, and should not be used by people with asthma or lung or heart problems. Combining products that contain chlorine and ammonia or ammonia and lye pose an added threat because they can react with each other or other chemicals to form lung-damaging gases. Combining these chemicals produces chloramine gases. Chlorine combined with acids (commonly used in toilet bowl cleaners) forms toxic chlorine gas.


Lets stop creating toxic gases in our home!
