According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the air inside a home is, on average, two-to-five-times more polluted than the air outside. As the emphasis of environmental concern shifts from outside to inside, paint is a large contributing factor to poor indoor air quality and can emit harmful chemicals, such as VOCs, for years after application.

| | Use cleaning products made from safe natural and not-toxic ingredients to prevent exposure to the hazardous synthetic chemicals conventional cleaners contain. |
| | Dust with a damp cloth to ensure that household dust, which collects toxins, is removed from surfaces and not stirred back into the air. |
| | Open windows and doors occasionally (even in winter!) to rinse out any air pollutants that have accumulated inside. |
| | Don't use aerosol products. They fill your home with microscopic droplets of whatever is being sprayed. These droplets remain suspended in the air for hours and are easily inhaled. |
| | Avoid room deodorizers or other air "freshening" products, which are frequently made from unhealthy chemicals. |
| | Don't use any pesticide products in your home, your yard or garden, or on your pets. Instead, supplement a preventative strategy with natural pest control methods. |
| | If you decide to use them, keep conventional cleaners and other chemical products out of your children's rooms. |
