Estimates vary that indoor pollution can be between 5 and 10 times the pollution outside your home. Open up your windows a enough to allow some air transfer for at least some part of the day. Next, consider natural air cleaning plants.

The New Ecologist made a list of the top 10 anti-pollution houseplants. They rate the best as:

  1. The Feston Rose plant
  2. Devil’s Ivy
  3. Phalaenopsis
  4. English Ivy  (My personal favorite)
  5. Parlor Ivy
  6. African Violets
  7. Christmas Cactus
  8. Yellow Goddess
  9. Garlic Vine
  10. Peace Lily
