Being a guy who has always suffered allergies,I've always looked at keeping my home's air clean as possible. I buy those extra fine filters for my HVAC system and vacuum my floors every other day but it still doesn't seem to be enough. Leave it to the good folks at NASA, who did a study over 20 years ago to find out which plants were best to filter the air of the space station, and the agency's findings are available to all. So load up on these house plants that work best to filter the air, by not only producing oxygen from CO2, but also absorbing benzene, formaldehyde and trichloroethylene.
I love the names of these plants, don't you?
