Radon
You can’t see, smell or taste radon, but it could be present at a dangerous level in your home. Radon is the leading cause of lung cancer deaths among nonsmokers in America and claims the lives of about 21,000 Americans each year.
Exposure to radon is a preventable health risk and testing radon levels in your home can help prevent unnecessary exposure. If a high radon level is detected in your home, you can take steps to fix the problem to protect yourself and your family.
The only way to know for sure if you have radon in your home is to test for it.
The Dickinson-Iron District Health Department has short term charcoal kits available for purchase for just $10.00. A 50% discount is applied in the month of January to recognize Radon Action Month.
