Question from Annette Tweedel
Hi,
I have MCS and I cannot tolerate air fresheners or candles at all. I also just recently found out on the internet that air freshener plug-ins like glade cause fires. I have looked on the packages in the stores and they don’t give ingredients. I had to google to get my information about how dangerous they are and to get the ingredients. They deaden your sense of smell. My neighbor has a reedifuser(I don’t think I spelled it correctly) and it affected me. So I went on the internet to do research on it and found out it has alcohol in it. And that is not safe or healthy. I am not trying to put down anyone, I am just trying to give some information. I cannot seem to go anywhere, almost, without someone having some sort or air freshener, whether it is a plug-in, one that sits on a shelf or a wall mount. The information that I got off the internet about air fresheners is that they cause sinus problems, infertility, miscarriages, cancer and other health problems. I am sorry, but I would not recommend anyone using an air freshener unless you know for sure that there are no chemicals in it.
Well, I think that’s all I have to say. I hope I did not offend anyone. But it does make me mad when someone wants to use an air freshener. If you have a smell in your house or business, found out what the problem is, get rid of it and then clean up the place, then open the windows and let Gods fresh air in.
One last note, Debra, I love your website. It is full of fantastic information. Thank you so much.
