Many people enjoy using diffusers to fill their homes with the pleasant aroma of essential oils. However, there is growing evidence that these devices may harm your health. Several studies have shown that diffusers can release volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into the air, which can cause respiratory problems and irritation to the airways.
Harmful to Cats
In addition, VOCs can also disrupt hormone function. While more research is needed to confirm these effects, it is best to err on the side of caution and avoid using diffusers in your home if you have cats. Cats are susceptible to essential oils; even low levels can cause liver damage. Therefore, choosing another method of fragrance for your home is best if you have feline friends.
In addition, when diffused into the air, essential oils can be inhaled by both humans and animals. This can irritate the lungs and cause respiratory problems. For these reasons, it is important to use caution when using aroma diffusers around cats. If you choose to use one, make sure to choose a non-toxic essential oil and diffuse it in a well-ventilated room.
Certain essential oils, when diffused into the air, can be harmful to cats. Ingesting these oils can cause vomiting and diarrhea and lead to liver damage. Inhaling these oils can cause upper respiratory tract irritation. Signs that your cat has been exposed to diffused essential oils include excessive licking, sneezing, watery eyes, and wheezing. If you think your cat has been exposed to diffused essential oils, take them to the vet immediately. While diffusing essential oils may make your home smell nice, it is not worth the risk of harming your feline friend.
