Hydrogen peroxide based cleaning products could raise the levels of that toxin to 610 times its level in fresh air.  Researchers from Syracuse University and the University of Saskatchewan measured gaseous hydrogen peroxide in a chamber designed to simulate residential settings.

Hydrogen peroxide-containing disinfectants represent more than 10% of products sold in Canada, and some 168 such products are on the market.  Excessive exposures can irritate the lung, skin, and eyes.  This is a particular risk for property custodians and house cleaners.

To limit hydrogen peroxide toxicity, use soap and water rather than any disinfectants. When using hydrogen peroxide but also isopropyl or ethyl alcohol, ventilate the room well.
