| Many homes fall short of the basic requirements
of a healthy home and contain one or more hazards that adversely affect
human health. Among the health hazards we may encounter in our homes are
those that cause and contribute to asthma (such as dust allergens, mold,
and pests), toxic materials (such as lead, asbestos, and chemical pesticides),
and poisonous gases (such as carbon monoxide and radon). |
