HELLO: Several months ago I purchased ‘NILOTRON’ odor counteractant. (Have many cats and dogs.) After about a week, I became very ill (I never get sick!)and almost nauseous. My breathing was labored and throat irritations & pains, sick to my stomach, body pains, headaches, etc. I finally noticed…. the air freshners were ‘thick smelling’ and I became suspicous that they were the culprits making me feel so bad. Let me tell you what is in this stuff!!”RIGHT TO KNOW”
“Diethylene Glucol Monoethtyl Ether; 2-Propanone; Petroleum Distillate; Propane, Butane.” “Meets new VOC regulations!” I am in shock that they would allow this on the market for consumers! I would be interested in to whomever else I can report this to. If you can advise me, I’d appreciate it. I am still coughing from this horrible purchase. Many thanks, Rebecca Smith Jacksonville, FL

Makes me so glad I don’t use air fresheners like that. I don’t like their smell, as a rule, most houses don’t stink that bad if you take care of them, and there are, as you said, natural ways to take care of it.
