Is Kaboom Cleaner Non-Toxic?

Question from Debbie

Hi Debra - 

I normally use non-toxic products to clean my home, I bought Kaboom shower cleaner over the weekend since I was completely out and didn't want to make a trip to Target to get Method shower cleaner (which I really like...) 

What is your take on Kaboom products? They say the cleaner will not release toxic fumes, but is the product itself non-toxic? 

Debra's Answer

At the website for Kaboom Shower, Tub and Tile Cleaner, there is a little link that says "View Safety Information." When you click through it says:

Inhalation...remove to fresh air, consult a physician. Hmmmm. And your supposed to use this product in a little tiny unventilated shower enclosure? I wouldn't.

No MSDS sheet is given on the website.
