When it comes to asthma, cleanliness is truly next to godliness. Keep your curtains clean, because that\u2019s where most of the dust mites are found. If you can, avoid curtains altogether, instead opt for window blinds. Vacuum your carpets daily or they\u2019ll release dust clouds every time people walk across them. Hardwood flooring is a better alternative, if you\u2019re thinking about a home improvement project. When it comes to keeping your loved ones safe, it\u2019s worth the cost.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Avoid Aerosol Products<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-349\" alt=\"airbrush\" src=\"http:\/\/www.best-home-remedies.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/airbrush.png\" width=\"450\" height=\"460\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.best-home-remedies.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/airbrush.png 450w, https:\/\/www.best-home-remedies.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/airbrush-293x300.png 293w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When you have someone suffering from asthma living in the house, you don\u2019t go around spraying air freshener. Have some common sense. Avoid aerosol products altogether or you\u2019ll have to resuscitate the patient every time you spray it. Sometimes even scented candles can be deadly. You never know when a romantic evening can turn into a visit to the doctor. Avoid using scented detergents or cleaning products either. It\u2019ll save you money and keep the patient safe. So it\u2019s a win-win. Consult a doctor to get a detailed list of things you should avoid using in the house.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Beware of Pets<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-350\" alt=\"pets\" src=\"http:\/\/www.best-home-remedies.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/pets.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"338\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.best-home-remedies.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/pets.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.best-home-remedies.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/pets-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Pets may be cute and cuddly, but they can induce asthma attacks in patients. Put them up for adoption, or your four legged friend might be the reason for your affliction. If you decide to keep them anyway you\u2019ll have to pay special attention to them. First of all they should be kept away from patients. All your cleaning efforts will be futile if your pet keeps spreading dander everywhere. Give your pet a bath every week, so this doesn\u2019t happen. If you have an animal cage, keep it in a separate room. It can be quite unsanitary due to animal droppings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maintain a Smoke Free Environment<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-351\" alt=\"no smoking\" src=\"http:\/\/www.best-home-remedies.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/no-smoking.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"338\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.best-home-remedies.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/no-smoking.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.best-home-remedies.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/no-smoking-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Smoking doesn\u2019t just kill the person with a cigarette in his mouth; it also kills people in the vicinity.
