Oven Cleaner (generic)

What is Oven cleaner?

Oven cleaners are powerful agents specifically formulated to remove baked-on grease and food residues from the interior of ovens. They often contain caustic substances that dissolve stubborn stains, making them effective but potentially hazardous to use if not handled properly.

Why do I have an intolerance?

Intolerance to oven cleaners can result from their strong chemicals and fumes, which can irritate the eyes, skin, and respiratory system. Individuals may experience coughing, skin burns, or headaches when exposed to these products, especially in poorly ventilated areas.

What can I do about it?

To manage intolerance, consider using natural oven cleaning methods, such as a paste made from baking soda and water, which can effectively remove grease without harsh chemicals. If using commercial oven cleaners, ensure the area is well-ventilated, and consider wearing gloves and masks to protect yourself from irritation during the cleaning process.
