Do you remember that episode of The Simpsons where homer has to clean the basement and due to the fumes of the cleaning products is attacked by the products logos.
I love the way the turtle tugs on his hair. If you know the logos they were aiming at plesase do tell. I believe the turtle was the turtle wax logo, not sure about the others.
Have you ever had hallucinations from cleaning products when not used in a well ventilated area ?
Have you ever got a a headache from paint fumes or got high on the fumes of products we use?

No I have not seen the episode you are talking about. I actually don't watch the simpsons anymore. I think that your probably right about the turtle though as I can't think of anything else other then turtle wax, of course I am thinking more of for cars.
I haven't been "attacked" by fumes from cleaning agents before, but if it does get to be a bit too much I usually leave the room for a few minutes. Luckily everywhere I have lived has been well ventilated.

I get sick from fumes, paint, or chemicals for pest control, sometimes if javel water will make me cough and gag and even throw up. Yes I get headaches, but I get headaches all the time anyway.

I've never had hallucinations from using cleaning products but I have gotten headaches from using cleaning products. I was cleaning the bathroom at home during the summer and I sprayed the shower down with this orange cleaner stuff. Well, I guess I sprayed too much or the fan wasn't helping pull the smell out and I got a pretty nasty headache that lasted a few minutes. I had to leave the room and wait awhile before I could go back in and finish cleaning.

If you ever do catch that episope of the Simpsons, you will laugh so much at Homer being affected by the fumes.
The fumes from some of those products would definitely not help your breathing. I find even the fumes from bleach to irritating and find fumes the worst.
