There are a lot of cleaning products that you can buy online or from the nearest store but it is sometimes hard to choose between them. You might also think that a single cleaning product alone will not be very effective so you opt in mixing two solutions instead, at first, you’ll see that you’ve made a stronger concoction, but it is actually unsafe because it can cause harm to your health or worse, cause death. It is very important to know the components of each chemical to avoid any complications and to use only a single product at a time. Here’s Clean With Confidence on YouTube to walk you through all of the lethal combinations that you should never ever try.

Cleaning Products:

  • Bleach
  • Vinegar
  • Drain Cleaners
  • Baking Soda
  • Ammonia
  • Rubbing Alcohol
  • Hydrogen Peroxide

Details:

#1: Bleach & Vinegar

These two cleaning products when mixed together create some kind of chlorine gas that can cause serious damage to your skin and eyes, then when inhaled in your lungs, can cause 3rd-degree burns type of damage.

#2: Different Types of Drain Cleaners

Never mix together different types of cleaners because they contain very powerful formulas, some are acids and some are bases. When they are mixed together, they can cause an explosion, so better use only one type of cleaner.

#3: Vinegar and Baking Soda

Vinegar is acid while baking soda is base, when they are mixed together, they will cancel each other out, and you’ll end up with what basically a bucket of salt water, which isn’t a really effective way to mop your floor clean.

#4: Bleach and Ammonia

Mixing these two cleaning products together creates a lethal solution that is in the form of chloramine gas which can intoxicate you or worse, kill you. It’s better to avoid these two solutions together and use them individually and separately.

#5: Bleach and Rubbing Alcohol

Bleach and rubbing alcohol can create chloroform when mixed together, you’d think they might not be that lethal because small amounts will only knock you out, but when you inhale a lot of this mixed chemical, it will decrease the supply of oxygen to your lungs and eventually knocking you out, for good.

#6: Hydrogen Peroxide and Vinegar

These two cleaning products are commonly used in household cleaning and are often recommended to mix together before use. Although they are not lethal or poisonous just like the others, it is, however, very corrosive and can actually cause irritation to your skin and eyes.
