Reverse Osmosis Water Treatment Systems- 4 Common Household Products That Can Pollute Your Water Supply

We often unknowingly purchase and bring home products that are not extremely useful. In fact, we don’t realize that these products may harm the water supply, people’s health, and even the environment. So, it is a smart idea to keep yourself updated on which products are harmful so that you can switch to safer alternatives. To help you out, we have created a list of 4 common household products that can pollute your water supply.

1. Insecticides and Pesticides

Many people don’t realize it, but the insecticides they use to get rid of rodents, cockroaches, mites, lice, and bedbugs, among others, can threaten your water supply and overall health and well-being. Frequently using insecticides means a bigger threat.

Prevention is better than cure. It would help if you tried to avoid pests and insects by cleaning your home regularly and sealing all the entry points they can possibly use. You can also consider environment-friendly natural pesticides and insecticides.

2. Car Care Products

Some common products needed for car maintenance like brake fluid, gasoline, antifreeze, and motor oil are not good for your water supply and the environment if they are not disposed of properly. If these liquids drip and seep into the ground, they can contaminate groundwater and badly impact your household water supply. These toxic liquids can impact the municipal storm drains also and contaminate local waterways.

So, it is smart to buy an earth-friendly alternative for washing your car. Pick biodegradable and petroleum-free products. If you have a well, make sure that you wash your vehicle about a one hundred feet away from the wellhead.

3. Medications

Medications that are not disposed of properly can contaminate the water supply. Sometimes, they can enter the tap water and impact the health and well-being of people. The medications that can harm the water supply range from sedatives to antibiotics.

A smart way to avoid it is to make it a habit not to throw unused or expired medications like normal trash. Instead, turn them in during the Take Back Days to safely dispose of them. The U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) ‘s website offers several tips and guidelines on the safe disposal of medicines.

4. Personal Hygiene Products

Products that you use to maintain your personal hygiene, such as soaps, lotions, body scrubs, fragrances, microbeads, etc., can impact normal hormone production. They can often end up in the water supply and harm not only humans but wildlife as well.

So, you should avoid personal care products that contain microbeads as they pass through sewage treatment plants and lead to plastic particle water pollution. Also, consider switching to environment-friendly personal care products for good.
