- Here's a list of common causes of indoor air pollution in Indian households and how to identify them:
1.Cooking Smoke: Identify by lingering smells and visible smoke during cooking. Install a kitchen exhaust fan or use a chimney to expel smoke outside.💨
2.Incense and Dhoop: Recognize by strong odors and visible smoke. Limit the use of incense and dhoop, and ensure proper ventilation after burning.
3.Tobacco Smoke: Detect by the distinct smell and presence of smoke residue on surfaces. Encourage smoking outdoors and establish smoke-free zones indoors.🚬
4.Biological Pollutants: Noticeable through musty odors, mold growth, and allergy symptoms. Regularly clean and ventilate damp areas, and use air purifiers with HEPA filters.
5.Household Cleaning Products: Identified by strong chemical smells and respiratory irritation. Opt for eco-friendly cleaning products and ensure proper ventilation while using them.🧹
6.Pesticides and Insecticides: Recognize by their strong chemical odor. Minimize indoor use and follow instructions carefully. Consider natural pest control methods.
7.Building Materials and Furniture: Noticeable through off-gassing of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Choose low-VOC or VOC-free materials and furniture. Allow new items to air out before bringing them indoors.
8.Indoor Plants: While beneficial, some indoor plants can release allergens and mold spores. Monitor for excessive moisture and mold growth around plants, and avoid overwatering.🪴
9.Pet Dander and Fur: Detected through allergic reactions and visible pet hair. Regular grooming and vacuuming can help reduce pet dander and fur accumulation.🐶🐱🦜
10.Inadequate Ventilation: Recognize by stale odors and humidity buildup. Ensure proper ventilation throughout the home by opening windows and using exhaust fans.
By identifying and addressing these sources of indoor air pollution, you can improve the air quality in your home and promote better health for you and your family
