download (3)Aloe is one of the most effective plants for the removal of low-level concentratino formaldehyde.

Place aloe anywhere you think formaldehyde is a problem, such as near a very new pressed wood or particleboard furniture, latex paint or wallpaper, or just finished wood flooring.

Aloe will do best in or near a window that gets full sun.

For each watering, soak the plant with water but allow enough time between waterings for it to dry out.
