Many people may not realize that asbestos is still present in older homes. While asbestos is generally safe when left undisturbed, any renovations, repairs, or even normal wear and tear can release harmful fibers into the air. This exposure has been linked to serious health risks, including mesothelioma.

To help individuals identify potential hazards and take necessary precautions, we recently published two guides to Asbestos in the Home that explain where asbestos may be found, what steps to take if it is suspected, and how to safely handle or remove asbestos-containing materials.
