Has anyone heard about this?
Air fresheners can be harmful around babies and children.
I used to use a lot more air fresheners, but now I hardly use any at all.
This has been in the news a few times, I just wondered if anyone here still uses them a lot?

In homes where air fresheners - including sticks, sprays and aerosols - were used every day rather than once a week, 32% more babies had diarrhoea.
The babies were also more likely to experience earache.
Daily use of aerosols such as polish, deodorant and hairspray was associated with a 30% increase in infant cases of diarrhoea, and also affected mothers' health.
These mothers who used air fresheners and aerosols daily had nearly 10% more headaches and were about 26% more likely to experience depression.
