Some things bear repeating. You’ve probably heard about radon, an invisible, odorless and poisonous gas that causes tens of thousands of deaths each year. The gas is also the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States. To call attention to this danger, the Environmental Protection Agency has declared January “National Radon Action Month.” Information about radon is available at www.ncradon.org.
Kits are available to help you determine whether your home has harmful levels of radon gas. First Alert Radon Gas Kit, available at hardware and other stores, is one. You can also get free kits from the state. Information about ordering a kit is at www.ncradon.org/free testkits_jan2010.htm
