Dust is chronic, infections, and incessant in this business. You'll find dust everywhere and slowly but surely infiltrates your life your car your home your laundry your children every full of dust from this jaw. I have two air purifiers in my home I leave one in the laundry room and one in my bedroom. I just run them around the clock 24/7 to mitigate the constant dust that we attract.
