Gorgeous Plants That'll Help Fight Mold In The House
By EZEKIEL MAINA
Ivy
A NASA Clean Air study found that ivy plants can absorb harmful volatile organic compounds including mold spores and break them down, promoting a healthier environment.
Peace Lily
While peace lily brings a touch of luxury with its shiny, dark green leaves, the plants are also adept at trapping and imprisoning mold spores and other pollutants.
Palm
Palm plants ingeniously combat mold by greedily seeping up moisture in high-humidity areas like bathrooms, while some also reduce menacing pollutants like ammonia.
Boston Fern
Excelling in soaking moisture from the air, Boston fern will rid your home environment of mold and transform it into a lush pocket of pristine air.
Snake Plant
While a snake plant can foster a fresher breathing environment, it’s also recognized by NASA for its ability to filter out trichloroethylene, benzene, and formaldehyde.
