Allergy Tips

After vacuuming your house, what should you do?

You've vacuumed your house as clean as you can. Now it's time to evacuate. No, seriously. But don't worry, it's only temporary. While sucking up the majority of the dust and allergens, you also managed to stir a portion up into the air. Leave the house for about 30 minutes or so after vacuuming to give the dust a chance to settle. You'll avoid inhaling the dust this way, and once things have returned to normal you can move back in and breathe easy.
