Do you have plants in your home? You might just enjoy the extra splash of color or the way they smell, but there are other benefits from having plants in your home as well. Many don’t know this, but plants can actually clean your air by extracting harmful chemicals from it. Plants do this naturally, and while you might not think about it, there are many chemicals in the air in your home. For example, they might come from your appliances, or from your furniture, left over by the processes used in manufacturing them. Having clean air in your home is essential to your respiratory health, and it can help you concentrate and overcome tiredness.

It is important though that you don’t bring any additional chemicals into your home by using fertilizer on your plants. You should also avoid over-watering them, since this could cause water damage in your home.
