Kirstie Allsopp fumed over plug-in air fresheners on Tuesday, and has branded everyone who uses them ‘a moron’.
The Location, Location, Location star, 52, is known for sharing her brutally honest views on the Channel 4 show, and now on social media.
She wrote on X: ‘Plug in air fresheners are poison. If you use them you are a moron who is poisoning yourself, your family & your pets. No reason for them whatsoever.’
Air fresheners mask unpleasant odors with vibrant scents, but they come with risks for human health. Many air fresheners rely on chemicals – including harbors toxins – to generate fragrances and make them linger in the air.
Kirstie went on to share several tweets on the topic through out the day and admitted: ‘I switch them off, or take out the batteries. I’m an air fresher terrorist.’

It comes just days after Kirstie vented her frustration after her British Airways flight was delayed for nearly 48 hours.
The delay caused the mother-of-two from London to miss hospital appointments and filming.
Kirstie appears to still be holed up in the unknown getaway location after returning to the airport only to find out that the departure had been delayed yet again.
Fuming, she posted on X: ‘I don’t think I have ever been so enraged by any company as I have been, and still am, with @British_Airways.
‘This latest episode, a delay of over 24 hours with next to no information and missed hospital appointments and filming as a result, is but another in a long line of [poo emoji].’
After an hour-and-a-half’s breather, the Channel 4 star returned to social media to add: ‘We pitched up at the airport as instructed, 24 hours after our original flight, waited 2 hours to be told that our flight is now delayed by another 21 hours until 5pm local time tomorrow.’
That amounts to a 47-hour wait in total.
She concluded that the delay was ‘utter chaos’.
Kirstie’s post has been viewed by over 65,000 people, and did get a swift reply from the airline’s official X account, inviting the presenter to contact them so they could ‘take a closer look’ to see if they could arrange an earlier flight.
Kirstie had already seemingly had a disrupted flight with BA in the previous few weeks.
On March 27, she posted on X: ‘Has anyone ever had a ‘ghost booking’ with British Airways, a ticket is booked but ‘cos the payment didn’t register, through no fault of yours, the ticket disappears and you think you never booked it/are going mad?’

After being told to return 24 hours after the original flight time, the flight was delayed an extra 23 hours, according to the presenter

Reporting previous incidents which had left her fuming at BA, one follower asked: ‘Seriously Kirstie. You constantly criticise BA. I’m just wondering why you don’t choose a different carrier?’
Her followers reported that similar things had happened to them, causing them to ‘lose the plot’.
Kirstie already said that this incident had made her ‘beyond angry’.
Understandably, one follower of the housing expert asked: ‘Seriously Kirstie. You constantly criticise BA. I’m just wondering why you don’t choose a different carrier?’
British Airways said: ‘We’ve been in contact with our customers to apologise for the delay to their flight. This was caused by a technical issue with the aircraft and our teams are working hard to get them on the way as quickly as possible.’
They added that they were covering all accommodation and meal costs for customers affected.
