Are you as safe as you think within the confines of your personal space? The answer is, not really. There are actually more polluting compounds within your homes, offices, and private dwellings than you may think.
The EPA has ranked indoor pollution in the top 5 dangers to your public health. This comes as a shock for most people, and to be honest, it is hard to believe, but it’s the truth.
Air Purifying Plants

This indoor/outdoor plant removes ammonia, benzene, formaldehyde, and xylene from the air you breathe. It isn’t costly and looks rather beautiful.
2. Spider Plant
This is another attractive plant that is easy to grow for your purifying needs. They even sprout their own offspring that will add to the collection of plants you have begun.
3. Dracaena

5. Peace Lily

6. Boston Fern
In addition to making your home breathable, the Boston Fern must be kept in a cool environment and preferably in the shade.
7. Snake Plant
Impossible to kill and it only needs water occasionally. They are very popular in restaurants, and notably so. They also don’t need much light.

Especially effective filtering formaldehyde, among other bacteria, and must be kept in sunlight. With potential to grow to 12 feet, they are a noticeable presence in the household.
