If you already own a home, here are some easy tips to follow to keep your home environment healthy:
Ventilation
Make sure you have fresh air circulating in your home.
Use Eco-Friendly Products
Keep air fresher and cleaner using toxin and pollutant free products
Choose Hardwood Flooring
Carpets can hide dust, pet hair, fungus, and other harmful particles
Unplug
Switch any technological devices not in use
Remove Your Shoes
Shoes can carry pollen, dirt, and soil from the outdoors into your home
Get It Tested
Ensure your home is radon free by getting it tested
Ensure Paint is Dry and Cured
While it’s exciting to set up a freshly painted room, ensure that paint is dry and cured before using it.
Change That Shower Curtain
Rotate your shower curtain regularly and avoid ones made from vinyl as they do become moldy quickly.
