So I have always understood PICA to be when pregnant women craved eating things that were "non-food" items.  Example, chalk, laundry soap, dirt...etc. I was always under the impressing it was EATING.

So recently, I have been obsessed with the SMELL of Lysol Multipurpose Lemon cleaner. I DO NOT in any shape form or fashion want to drink it....but I could spray it all over the house as an air freshener or whatever... Seriously, if I know my daughter or cat wouldnt pick it up and drink it, I would put little bowls out of it so the smell would stay throughout the house.

I have started mopping my floors SEVERAL times a day, even though they dont need it, and I even use it to wipe the countertops and tables.....

Should I be worried Im gonna start wanting to drink this stuff?? LOL I really dont think I will, but just wondering.

lol thats hillarious! I have been obsessed with anything pumpkin pie or cinnamon roll smelling.. I just bought a TON of new glade air fresheners and I am currently sitting next to a delish smelling candle. I have no desire to take a bite out of it though and am doubtful I would even if the temptation was strong lol.  
 Also just my opinion I dont think its a very good idea to expose you or your bean to excessive amounts of cleaning products.  they can be harmful if your contantly breathing them.

Sounds like PICA to me.  I would talk to your doctor about it and what the risks are if your always smelling it!
