It is no surprise that mixing cleaning chemicals can be a deadly business. But why exactly is it so dangerous, and what specifically should not be mixed? The main cleaner that can NOT be mixed with other cleaning agents is chlorine bleach.

Chlorine bleach is basically chlorine gas in water. When it is mixed with other chemicals, deadly gases can be produced.
