Friday's Comments

Happy Friday! Ragweed continues to read high! Mold levels are continuing to read high with the higher temperatures and humidity. We will continue to monitor the trend.

Laser particle counts are the number of particles per cubic meter divided into 6 different size ranges. A laser beam literally counts the number of such particles as they are sucked past a detector. There is evidence that increased numbers of particles, particularly in the smaller ranges, are associated with heart diseases. That is why we measure it.
