Don't get me started!!! Scented products including cleansers, candles, plug-in or other air fresheners are all chemicals we are much better to do without. There is a higher incidence of allergies and asthma in homes where scented products are used.

If you want a clean, freshsmell, open a window, bring in a bundle of rosemary, boil some cinnamon sticks on the stove, etc.

Febreeze.......can you DRINK it?? Or RUB it into your skin??? Or use it for eyewash?? But breathe it DEEP into your lungs?? :sick I use no scented products in my home as they all give me a reaction to them. Perfumes and colognes are just as bad.

:yuckyuck

I've got asthma and fragrances really aggravate it for sure. Wouldn't do any good trying to cover up carpet odors in my home. You'd still get a dog hair up your nose, lol.

I don't find those commercial scary, just kinda sad that that juvenile stuff works so well on the American people. They remind me of a certain teenage boy from high school that was well known to keep air freshener in his car. He passed gas regularly.

I try to find laundry detergent, shampoos and soaps that don't have perfumes and dyes. Laundry detergent is possible but not always easy. The others, well, everybody needs their own personal lifetime quest I guess.
