Zoflora and sore lungs

3 replies

I haven’t had this stuff in my own home for years after really hating the smell and the effect it had on my lungs as a child.

can’t believe I buckled this week and bought the rose fragrance - I’m a sucker for the smell of roses but despite liking the fragrance, and despite diluting it according to instructions, I sprayed and wiped my counter tops down over 3 hrs ago and my lungs haven’t felt the same since.

They seriously hurt! Im not
coughing and my airways are definitely clear but the zoflora has most definitely irritated them.

Does anyone else experience this?

No because I just wipe down with water, all these chemical are worse than the germs they're supposed to be killing IMO. Stop using that awful stuff that clearly doesn't agree with you OP!

I get the same reaction with Cif. Couldn't have it about me.

I don't think it's actually harmful unless mixed with bleach but that's the rule with all disinfectants.

You’re 100% right.
kicking my self for buckling and buying it. Clearly forgot how horribly it affects me. FGS I’m certain my mother used the stuff neat 😭.

I may just bin the whole lot in the rubbish - don’t want to tip it anywhere!
