Formaldehyde is a fairly common air pollutant. It is colorless, has a strong irritating odor, and dissolves easily in water, ether, and alcohol. Its harm varies depending on the concentration. So many people want to grow some plants in their new home that can purify formaldehyde, but when it comes to plants that can remove formaldehyde, the first one many people think of is pothos. If they try to think of another different formaldehyde-removing plant, their mind is full of pothos, and they can't come up with any other plant that can remove formaldehyde. To avoid this awkwardness, today the editor will introduce a group of different little cuties that are also quite good at purifying formaldehyde! Let's take a look together.

These are the formaldehyde-removing plants besides pothos. The best way to purify formaldehyde in a new home is still mainly ventilation. Plants, charcoal, and the like can only play a supporting role. The best approach is still to ventilate for a period of time. When preparing to move into a new home, appropriately choose a few pots of plants to decorate the house. A modest amount of simple embellishment makes the home look like it has a lot more life in it, and it can also absorb some harmful substances. Two benefits at once, what a win~
