10 Surprising Ways You Are Accidentally Poisoning Your Home

#3 – Laser Printers

You probably have one of these laser printers somewhere in the house. Don’t panic, because even though it emits hazardous tiny bits of toner in the form of UFPs (ultrafine particles), researchers don’t quite agree on their effects on human health. For reference, your toaster also releases these so-called UFPs.

It might not be a good idea to have your printer on stand-by, or sitting very close to it while it does its job. Be cautious, and wait for further scientific results before throwing it in the trash can.
