Avoid Other Irritants and Allergens


Gasoline fumes – If you must pump your own gas, stand where you can’t smell the fumes.

Smoke and fire – If you have a fireplace, don’t use it. Use a kitchen exhaust fan while cooking.

Extremes in air temperature and humidity – These conditions make your body work harder to maintain its normal temperature. Cover your mouth and nose when going out in very cold or windy weather.

Correct dampness problems in your home that promote mold growth.
