Holiday decorations make your home fun and festive. But they can also bring in asthma triggers and allergens. How do you deck the halls while keeping a healthy home?
Here are five asthma & allergy friendly® tips for a healthier home for the holidays.
- Wear a mask while dusting off decorations. Dust them outside or in your garage to prevent bringing dust in the house.
- Think about your allergies and asthma triggers when choosing a holiday tree or wreath. Real live trees and wreaths can have pollen and mold spores all over them. But fake trees can be covered in dust and irritants.
- If you have pets, clean your floors often with a CERTIFIED asthma & allergy friendly® vacuum. If your pets are inside more because of colder weather, so is more of their dander and fur.
- Remove your shoes at the door so you don’t bring mold and pollen into your home.
- Use CERTIFIED asthma & allergy friendly® air cleaners to help remove dust and other particles from the air in rooms with a lot of decorations. Good indoor air ventilation is also important to reduce the spread of the coronavirus (the virus that causes COVID-19).
