Top Tips For Clean Indoor Air
by: Michael Grzywacz
Indoor air can make you miserable if it is not kept clean and healthy.
Clean indoor air is essential for a happy you and a happy home.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has reported that Indoor air can contain up to 5 times as much pollution as outdoor air. Allergies and asthma are on the rise so cleaning indoor air in your home and work place is more important than ever as this can greatly reduce symptoms according to Dr. John Winder, an allergist for the Nationwide Asthma Screening Program of the American College of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology.
These are some clean indoor air top tips:
- When you dust your house with a cloth you a often spreading dust around. You vacuum based tools to dust with instead. Make sure you don?t avoid difficult to reach areas like space under beds, drapes and moldings.
- A great tip for dusting small objects is to cover the nozzle of your vacuum cleaner with a pair of tights or fine cloth. Put the vacuum on a low suction level and run the small objects over the front of the vacuum nozzle. This sucks all the dust off without the object disappearing in to the vacuum! Note: Be sure to use a scrap material to cover the vacuum nozzle as it can get ruined in the process.
- Wrap pillows and mattresses in allergen-protective covers and regularly vacuum them.
- When you wash your linens make sure the water is hot (130 degrees or above) to ensure dust mites and their eggs are killed off properly.
- Deep clean your carpets & floor surfaces once every season at least.
- To really thoroughly achieve clean indoor air get an air purifier to remove all the airborne pollutants.
- Clean indoor air is also about humidity.. maintain a cool & dry home. Keep humidity to 50% or less. You can use a humidifier to aid in this but make sure you frequently empty the unit to prevent the growth of mold in the tank.
- Try to avoid letting your pets sleep in the bedrooms.
- Keep stuffed animals and busy shelves to a minimum as these are real dust-catcher locations. If you have lots of stuffed toys vacuum them frequently.. but carefully of course!!
Follow this great advice and you will have super clean indoor air in no time.

8 Reasons Why You Should Buy Wool Rugs
8 Reasons Why You Should Buy Wool Rugs
by: John Murray
Wool has been around for a long time, in fact it is one of the oldest textile fiber known of. Because of its natural properties wool rugs have been known to last for generations. In our modern world there are many other textile fiber used for rugs but nothing is as durable, unique, and lasting as wool. Here are 8 reasons why you should buy wool rugs.
1. Fire Resistant
Wool is a natural fiber that is very safe because it is naturally non flammable so it does not need to be treated. Although wool can burn it cannot flare up to cause a flame that spreads. So where ever the burn starts will be where it ends as well. Wool won't melt either so it won't stick to the skin and cause a burn. That is why wool blankets, carpets, and even clothing for children are so popular. They are like having fire prevention insurance.
2. Water Repellent

Understanding Sleep Apnea
Understanding Sleep Apnea
by: Cameron Elliot
Sleep disorders are part of a broad category encompassing of variety of conditions that affect sleep. Some sleep disorders, like insomnia, prevent sleep from occurring at all. Sleep apnea is different. Instead of keeping you awake, sleep apnea severely impairs the sleep you do get.
No matter what you do, you cannot get enough sleep. And night after night, you go to bed hoping that tonight will be different. Tonight you won't snore.
You'll have a good night's rest and wake up tomorrow morning feeling refreshed. But it's always the same. You always feel terrible in the morning. Day after day, you're utterly exhausted. You catch yourself falling asleep while driving, in meetings, talking to friends.
Sleep apnea is an unpleasant experience. The passageways from your nose and mouth to your lungs partially or even completely close, resulting in heavy breathing and snoring. Air can't get to...

Memory Foam History...Astronauts, Racehorses and Bed Sores
Memory Foam History...Astronauts, Racehorses and Bed Sores
by: Charles "Chuck" Harmon
With all the advertising about memory foam these days, it's hard to imagine that this material has only been in existence for a little over 30 years.
It's difficult to find an exact date when memory foam first came into being, but it was originally formulated during the early days of manned space flight. Most likely, it was in the mid to late 1960's.
The National Aeronautics & Space Administration, aka. NASA, needed a material that would cushion the astronauts from the unparalleled g-forces of launch and re-entry during space missions.
In response the their request, a material was produced, called visco-elastic memory foam.
I've seen dozens of articles explaining what visco-elastic memory foam means and none of them has the same explanation.
The online dictionary gives no definition for the word visco, but the word is derived from viscous,...

Baby Cribs Safety Checklist
Baby Cribs Safety Checklist
by: Parvati Markus
Congratulations! You?ve got a baby on the way!
Once your baby has arrived, one of the most important parts of your new life together will be getting a good night?s sleep ? you in your bed, the baby in a safe and comfortable crib. At first, you may want your newborn to sleep in a bassinet by your bed, making it a little easier for breastfeeding moms, but have a crib ready by the time your baby can roll over.
Your baby will spend more time in the crib than anywhere else, so safety is of utmost importance. What makes a crib safe?
* The bars or slats of the crib railing should be no more than 2-3/8" apart, close enough together to prevent your baby?s head from slipping through or getting stuck. That crib in the attic may be a beautiful antique, but it probably does not meet this safety standard. Secondhand older cribs may also have splinters or lead paint as well as slats that are too far...
