Not many people know that mixing bleach with other chemicals can be deadly! Here are some household products you should never mix with bleach and some other products you should never mix!

✨ Detergent and Bleach
While some detergents are compatible with bleach — after all, many people do laundry with both bleach and laundry soap — others may contain ammonia or other not-safe ingredients that can create harmful fumes, always check the ingredients before mixing!

✨Lysol and Bleach
They may be super effective on their own, but Lysol and bleach together can create toxic chloramine fumes — a chemical variant of chlorine — which can lead to respiratory problems or eye irritation.

✨Dish Soap and Bleach
Mixing dish soap with bleach can create toxic chloramine fumes if the dish soap contains ammonia, so its recommended to always checking the labels before mixing.

✨Fabuloso and Bleach
Fabuloso contains surfactants and fragrances that aren’t safe to mix with bleach. The combo could create harmful fumes and damage surfaces, due to the high pH levels.

✨Ammonia and Vinegar
Another potentially risky combo is ammonia and vinegar, which creates a high-pH solution that can cause skin irritation or burns. Additionally, the combination can produce an unpleasant odour.

✨Glass Cleaner and Bleach
Glass cleaner (such as Windex) typically contains ammonia, which should never be mixed with bleach. The combo can create toxic chloramine fumes, similar to the Lysol and bleach combination.

✨Bleach and Vinegar
This releases chlorine and chloramine vapors. These can cause a chemical burn, most likely in your lungs or eyes.

✨Bleach and Rubbing Alcohol
This combination releases chloroform, a gas notorious for being used by old-fashioned bad guys to knock out their victims. High levels of exposure can lead to damage of the nervous system, eyes, lungs, skin, liver, kidneys, and even death. Even low levels can make you dizzy or nauseous.

✨Bleach and Ammonia
Combining bleach and ammonia releases chloramine vapors, which can cause respiratory problems and throat burns if inhaled. Beware that many cleaning products contain either bleach or ammonia in their formulas, so the fact that you could be combining these two might not be so obvious — which is why you should never, ever mix any kind of cleaning product.

✨Hydrogen Peroxide and Vinegar
While these two chemicals can be used in succession as a cleaning duo, do not mix them together. Combining these two creates peracetic acid or corrosive acid, an irritant that, in high concentrations, can harm the skin, eyes, throat, nose, and lungs.

✨Drain Cleaner and More Drain Cleaner
If you’ve got a clog, it’s tempting to pour in as much drain cleaner as you can find under your sink — but beware of using one right after the other, because these super-strong formulas (they’re meant to eat away those clogs!) can react very, very badly. Combining drain cleaners can cause the release of chlorine gas and potentially lead to an explosion.

✨Pine-Sol and Detergent
Pine-Sol is generally safe to mix with most laundry detergent, but be cautious with detergents containing bleach or ammonia, as this can create harmful fumes (or simply reduce the effectiveness of both products).

Be safe and as a rule of thumb don’t mix cleaning chemicals/products, or always check the ingredient lists to ensure mixing two products is safe!🧼🧽🫧
