Should I clean asthma triggers after the dust storm?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storm last month, I’ve noticed a persistent cough and wheezing in my daughter’s room at night. The windows were left open to air out the place, but now the area feels almost unbearable. Should I be concerned about cleaning asthma triggers here?

Absolutely, you should definitely clean asthma triggers after the dust storm. In dubai and the uae, it's especially important to address potential allergens and irritants promptly. The recent dust event has likely brought in a significant amount of particulates into your indoor environment, which can exacerbate asthma symptoms.

Firstly, ensure that your daughter’s room is thoroughly cleaned. Dust mites, pet dander, mold spores from the storm, and even fibers from fabrics can all trigger asthma attacks. Use a damp cloth or mop to clean floors and surfaces; dry environments can trap dust better than wet ones, so try to keep humidity levels down with a dehumidifier if needed.

Ventilation is key, but be cautious about leaving windows open during high-pollen days, which are not uncommon in the region. You might consider using an air purifier that includes HEPA filters; these can capture tiny particles like dust mite allergens and mold spores, reducing exposure significantly.

Also, check for any signs of water damage or leaks in your home as a result of the storm. Moisture can lead to the growth of mold, which is a major asthma trigger. If you notice anything unusual, it's best to seek professional help from an inspection company like ours. We can provide a thorough assessment and recommend appropriate remediation steps if needed.

Remember, in uae, regulations require that buildings be kept in good condition to prevent health issues. Ensuring your home is clean and free of hazards can go a long way towards keeping everyone healthy, especially those with respiratory conditions.

If you find it challenging to manage or if symptoms persist, don’t hesitate to contact us for an inspection. Our number is 800-MOLDS or 800-66537. Alternatively, feel free to email hello@saniservice.com for further assistance.
