BLOWING DUST CAN SIGNIFICANTLY LOWER AIR QUALITY AND IT IS
ENCOURAGED THAT YOU TAKE PREVENTATIVE MEASURES SUCH AS STAYING
INDOORS OR WEARING PROTECTIVE BREATHING MASKS IF OUTSIDE. HIGH DUST
CONCENTRATIONS CAN CAUSE RESPIRATORY PROBLEMS, DECREASE LUNG
ACTIVITY, AGGRAVATE ASTHMA, AND LEAD TO POTENTIAL HEART-RELATED
PROBLEMS, ESPECIALLY WITH CHILDREN, ELDERLY OR THOSE WITH
PRE-EXISTING RESPIRATORY CONDITIONS.
