Negative ions attach onto dust particles, microorganisms and other unwanted particles in the air and connect them to each other. This way, the particles become heavier than air and fall onto the ground so that you can no longer breathe them in.

Negative ions are most found in the forest, mountains and by the sea. Negative ions ensures fresh and healthy air.
