But recent research by Dr Dick Irwin of the Texas A & M University (toxicology’s), shows that “chemicals have replaced bacteria and viruses as the main threat to our health.”

In general, people are aware of chemicals in a lot of the products they buy, but most people really do not delve into just how much there is and even more concerning, the type of chemicals that are in the products they buy.

It is not so many years ago that much of the things that we ate or lived with, were organic, not by design, but just because that was the way it was.

How things have changed. Today manufacturers are looking at the end result and ‘the bottom line’ and unless there are laws about what they can put in and on products, they will use any lethal chemical without a second thought, to get the result they want.  Every year there are products withdrawn because a company has been found out.

If you are a manufacture of any note in this day and age you are aware of international laws, and laws of the countries that you are sending your products to.  But do you think that matters?   Not a jot to some manufacturers, if they think they can get away with it and it is going to cost less to make, they will give it a try.

There are many household items that cross this chemical barrier and it is even worse in the household cleaning products.  That is why we concentrate on ‘green cleaning’.  We believe in it, and we LIVE IT!

But have you given any serious thought to what that spray has done for you and your family?

Let’s look at the facts:

• If you use perfume you spray it on yourself so that you have a nice fine coverage of scent, right?  Well, when you spray pest spray you also have a fine coverage on your household effects.  Trouble is, it is not so nice!
• A fine spray on furniture or bench tops is likely to stay there for some time unless it is wiped of intentionally, or when the house is cleaned.
• Do you realize what else happens with the fine spray?  It sits in the air for a long time (depending on air flow, it can be for hours)
• So what is happening in the meantime?  You are inhaling or touching all the chemicals that have killed the pest.

Now that we have thought about how the spray works, did you realize that many of the toxins in pest spray cannot be expelled from the body! That is right. They accumulate in the body for the rest of your life.  WOW, that is information that is a bit hard to digest, isn’t it?  But it is true.

If we use toxic pest sprays on a regular basis we are slowly storing up killer toxins!

If you are an adult that is one thing, but imagine what it is doing to the toddlers who run around and are always putting their hands in their mouths.  And what about their toys that they have lying around that probably got covered in pest spray, as they too will be put in the mouths of the littleness.

Give some serious thought about how to kill pests in your house because you are most definitely harming yourself and your family if you use chemical sprays.
