7 About ventilation

Let's ventilate well

  • Ventilate to discharge odors, bacteria, viruses, dust, etc.
  • Even if one window is opened, ventilation is not possible efficiently. When you open the window or door on the other side, the wind passes through and provides efficient ventilation.
  • Even in the cold winter season, open windows and doors for about 5 minutes an hour and ventilate.
  • Good ventilation is to create a path where air flows into the room.

Mold and mites

  • In summer, it becomes hot and humid, so mold and ticks are more likely to occur.
  • Ventilation is not possible much, especially during the rainy season or rainy weather, as the humidity rises, but be sure to provide sufficient ventilation on sunny days.
  • Although it is dry in winter, mold and ticks may be generated due to the use of humidifiers and the generation of water vapor due to the burning of gas and oil stoves.
  • Throughout the year, bedding absorbs sweat and is more likely to cause "mold" and "mites". If possible, it is recommended that you dry it outdoors on a sunny day. If you can't dry it outdoors, put your bedding on a chair or the like indoors to let it pass through.

Prevention of pests intrusion into the room
