Strategies To Minimize Smoke Exposure

Smoke

Wildfire smoke is harmful to human health. Air purifiers with HEPA filters are a great way to protect human health.

If you don’t have an air purifier, you can make a DIY air filter with a furnace filter (MERV 13 rating or higher), box fan, and a bungee cord. For safety, a DIY air filter should not be used if no one is home or when asleep. #SmokeReady
