What is asbestos, and why is it hazardous?

Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that was used in various building materials. It’s hazardous because when disturbed, it releases microscopic fibers that, if inhaled, can lead to serious health issues, including lung cancer and asbestosis.

Where can asbestos be found in a home or building?

Asbestos can be present in insulation, roofing materials, floor tiles, pipe insulation, and other construction materials. It was commonly used in buildings constructed before the 1980s.

Why is lead hazardous, and where can it be found in homes?

Lead is hazardous because it can cause lead poisoning, especially in children. It can be found in lead-based paints used in homes built before 1978, as well as in some plumbing materials.

Is it safe to remove asbestos or lead on my own?

No, both asbestos and lead removal require specialized training and equipment. Attempting to remove them without proper precautions can pose significant health risks.
