    27 Things For Anyone Who Wants To Improve The Air Quality In Your Home

    Being able to breathe in your own home is a #1 priority, if you ask me.

    1. A charming and durable snake plant to help remove formaldehyde, xylene, and toluene from the air and bring cozy plant vibes into your home.

    2. An ozone-free Levoit air-purifier with a three-stage filtration system and the ability to circulate air over four times per hour, so you can rest assured you're breathing in fresh, clean air.

    3. A 15-pack of charcoal bamboo bags reviewers swear by for getting rid of bathroom odors, stinky shoe smells, garbage and diaper odors, and all sorts of other bad smells you don't want to inhale.

    4. A Germ Guardian tower with a HEPA filter and UV light sanitizer you can plug in and feel the air quality in your room improve. I used this air filter when in recovery from mold sickness and it made the difference in being able to breathe through the night.

    5. A dehumidifier with a reusable air filter that'll remove moisture and purify the air in larger spaces — up to 1,500 square feet to be exact. Reviewers say it pulls tons of water out of the air, even in the most humid conditions, so consider musty basement or bathroom smells handled!

    6. And a four-pack of moisture absorbers ideal for anyone working with a bathroom with no exhaust, in case you don't want to commit to a dehumidifier. These crystals last up to 60 days, and you can purchase separate refills for the future!

    7. A pair of aloe plants, which are known for keeping the air fresh, clean, and crisp. They only need water every few days and are a pretty hardy plant as well!

    8. An oil diffuser so you can focus on adding moisture and aromatherapy to your bedroom, instead of the smell of your housemate's hard-boiled eggs wafting in under the door. Essential oils sold separately!

    9. An extra-strength shoe deodorizer that'll freshen up the stinky sneakers in your entryway or bedroom, because no one wants to be greeted with foot smell upon arriving home.

    10. A Pet House candle to help eliminate wet dog smell, litter box odors, and other smelly smells that need to be neutralized ASAP.

    11. And a coconut wax candle featuring a lead-free wick, phthalate-free fragrance oil and liquid dye, and a 60-hour burn time — ideal for those of us living with sensitive lungs (coconut burns cleaner than soy).

    12. A Molekule air filter that'll eliminate pollutants, viruses, bacteria, mold, pollen, smoke, burnt food smells, dust mite allergens, pet dander, and chemicals from the air. Molekule also makes an Air Pro filter for larger spaces with an anodized aluminum body, for those who prefer metal air filters over plastic.

    13. An English Ivy plant reviewers adore for its dependable packaging and gorgeous looks. Not to mention English ivy is at the top of the list for plants that can help purify your home!

    14. And a five-pack of medium air plants perfect for anyone who wants crisp plant vibes in their home or room, minus plants that require soil and more care. Air plants photosynthesize through a process called crassulacean acid metabolism, meaning they conserve water during the day and convert carbon dioxide into oxygen overnight!

    15. A three-stage filtration Blueair Blue Pure 211+ air purifier that'll cover up to 540-square-foot with machine washable pre-filters.

    16. A replacement HVAC system filter designed to attract and capture lint, pollen, dust, pet dander, smoke, and smog so you can keep breathing easy!

    17. An air sanitizer spray that'll kill germs and odor-causing bacteria that are hanging around your home. Reviewers swear by it for actually eliminating nasty smells instead of just covering them up.

    18. And a bottle of 100% pure organic tea tree oil I personally swear by for spritzing around the house and bathroom to eliminate smells and mold. Tea tree oil is naturally anti-fungal and anti-bacterial, and if you're sensitive to chemicals like I am, a few drops in a spray bottle just may work wonders for you as well!

    19. A potted Boston fern that's known for being one of the best plants for absorbing toxins and removing harmful chemicals from the home.

    20. A small but mighty seven-in-one machine that acts as an air humidifier, deodorizer, purifier, air revitalizer, sanitizer, aromatherapy device, and fragrance releaser. Just plug into your wall for some deliciously fresh air.

    21. An extra-large nontoxic, pet-friendly bamboo palm plant that'll help remove formaldehyde and other toxins from the air and add some fresh oxygen to your home!

    22. And a genius self-watering planter that'll keep your plants hydrated for up to two weeks. Over-watered and moldy plants aren't helping anyone, and this will take the guesswork out of keeping your plant babies alive and well.

    23. A powerful dehumidifer ready to suck all the water out of extra-large spaces. It covers up to 4,500 square feet and over 11,000 reviewers swear by it. It also has wheels and a handle in case you need to move it around with ease!

    24. An oscillating tower fan with a remote so you can literally get some fresh air blowing your way without even leaving your bed. I used this fan in combination with my air filter over the summer when I was living in an ozone-polluted area, and it helped a lot!

    25. A 10-pack of garbage disposal fresheners to help keep the air around the kitchen sink fresh and clean instead of stinky and gross.

    26. A monthly Plant Club subscription to slowly but surely give your room big "forest with crisp clean air" vibes, aka my dream. You'll get a new plant babe each month!

    27. And an investment-worthy E.L. Foust Series 400 Air Purifier that's truly a workhorse. It can filter up to 1,000 square feet using a large carbon media and HEPA filter (that lasts up to three years). I got one of these for my birthday this year after a provider recommended it for my asthma and chemical sensitivity, and it has changed my life.
