For example, bad smelling and poisonous plants should not be kept indoors. Let's take a look at what plants are suitable for indoor use.

Aloe, hanging orchid, tiger tail orchid and one-leaf orchid are natural cleaners who can remove harmful substances from the air. Studies have shown that tiger tail orchid and hanging orchid can absorb more than 80% of indoor harmful gases, and have a strong ability to absorb formaldehyde. Aloe is also good at absorbing formaldehyde, absorbing 90% of formaldehyde in 1 cubic meter of air.

Ivy, iron tree, kumquat, pomegranate, half lotus, rose, camellia, Milan, daisy, wax plum, marigold, etc., can effectively remove harmful substances such as sulfur dioxide, chlorine, ether, ethylene, carbon monoxide and nitrogen peroxide.

Orchids, sweet-scented osmanthus, wax plum, taro, red back cinnamon and so on are natural dust collectors whose cilia can intercept and absorb floating particles and smoke in the air.

Second, plants that can repel mosquitoes

As the weather gets warmer, mosquito repellent plants have become the focus of attention. Mosquito clean vanilla is like this-a plant. It is an aromatic geranium plant that has changed its genetic structure and has only been introduced from Australia in recent years. The plant is drought-tolerant, can grow and mature within half a year, can survive for 10 ~ 15 years if properly maintained, and the shape of its branches and leaves can be changed at will, so it has high ornamental value. Mosquito net vanilla exudes a fresh and elegant lemon fragrance, which has a good mosquito repellent effect indoors, but has no toxic side effects on the human body. The higher the temperature, the more aroma it emits, and the better the mosquito repellent effect is. According to the test, the mosquito net vanilla with a crown width of more than 30 square meters can drive away mosquitoes in a room with an area of more than 10 square meters. In addition, a plant called pyrethrum contains pyrethroid, which can also effectively ward off mosquitoes.

The fragrance of rose, carnation, lily of the valley, violet, rose and sweet-scented osmanthus has obvious inhibitory effect on the growth and reproduction of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, pneumococci and staphylococci.

Cactus and other succulent plants native to tropical arid areas, the stomata on their succulent stems are closed during the day and open at night, absorbing carbon dioxide and producing oxygen, increasing the concentration of negative ions in the indoor air.
