I was just cleaning the kitchen and I sprayed "Simple Green" a non-toxic biodegradable multi-purpose cleaner on the counters.  It has a strong odor.  I immediately felt twinges of a migraine come on.  Has anyone else experienced this?  If so, is their a non-scented product out there that works well?  Also, when are they going to pass a law that perfume cannot be worn outside of the home - ha!

I know what you mean Hopeful!!! lol I too get an attack in response to strong chemical smells. The cleaners with citrus in are the worst for me so I avoid them altogether!!! Sadly I don't know of a non-scented product, but would be interested myself if anyone came up with one!!

I hope someone does. I was doing just fine today before spraying that cleaning spray. Now, I'm going to be on a mission to find a non-scented cleaner. Anybody?
