22 Plants From Amazon That Will Clean the Air in Your Home

22 Plants From Amazon That Will Clean the Air in Your Home

For many of us, it's important to make sure our homes are clean for a number of reasons, not least of which is to keep ourselves healthy. Regular cleaning tasks like dusting and vacuuming are great for keeping allergies at bay, but what about those damaging particles you can't see? Due to the furniture we buy and air pollutants that get in from outside, your home's air can be full of harsh chemicals and pollutants like formaldehyde, mold, and even car exhaust fumes. While these are almost unavoidable to some degree, the good news is that you don't have to purchase an expensive air purifier to start cleansing the air in your home! Instead, try filling your home with beautiful plants — think of them as nature's air purifiers. And because you can find them on Amazon, all it takes is the click of a button.
