Can I use household cleaning products during pregnancy? Is it safe?

Exposure to mild cleaning agents is generally safe. But it’s a good idea to stay away from very strong fumes and harsh cleaning agents. For example, if the phenyl or disinfectant used in mopping the floor is too strong, ask your maid to reduce the phenyl in the water and stay away from strong polishes like Brasso (brass polish) or silver polish.

• Buy branded and top quality cleaning products
• Make sure that you have good ventilation when the house is being cleaned
