PINE OIL
Pine oil is derived from steam distillation of wood from pine trees.
It is a common agent used in many household disinfectants and deodorants
and has also been used as a pure substance for its disinfectant properties.
In general, pine oil in its concentrated form is a skin irritant and may cause
allergic reactions. If swallowed, pine oil may be sucked into the lungs
(aspirated), possibly resulting in chemical pneumonia.
