5 Hidden Household Dangers And How To Prevent Them

OwnerWiz discusses five potential health risks and how to create a safer, more eco-friendly home.

·         When cooking with Teflon pots and pans potential hazardous fumes and particles are released into the air such as toxic gases, carcinogens and global pollutants. OwnerWiz suggest using a well-seasoned cast iron skillet instead.

·         You’re likely to expose your body to the chemical PFC (perfluorochemcials) when you sleep on a bed using “Wrinkle free” sheets. This chemical is linked to reproductive and development toxicity, as well as cancers of the bladder and liver. OwnerWiz suggest that you stick with using natural alternatives like cotton or linen beddings.

·         Most people feel drained when sitting under Fluorescent light bulbs. They contain a toxic gas known as mercury vapor. Also, when fluorescent light bulbs break it releases the toxic gas in to the air and is harmful to humans and pets. Fluorescent bulbs do save the typical homeowner’s money over incandescent bulbs, but if you want to avoid any risk we suggest using regular incandescent light bulbs.

·         Your electrical appliances create electromagnetic fields (EMFs) which are similar to those found under power lines and are linked to cancer clusters. OwnerWiz suggest that you always unplug your appliances when they are not being used.

·         When walking around anywhere outside of your home, we are unwittingly stepping in car oil, pesticides, animal waste and toxins. OwnerWiz suggest that when you are going into your home that you take your shoes off. This will prevent spreading germs and other toxins to your home’s flooring, carpets and furniture.
