Safe Cleaning Methods For: Linens and Clothes

DO NOT SHAKE YOUR LINENS OR CLOTHES. Shaking will cause the dust to become airborne, settling once again on floors and other surfaces, which may then be breathed in.

CLEANING METHOD:

  1. WEAR a dust mask and gloves.
  2. CAREFULLY REMOVE the linens and clothes from drawers or closets. Try not to disturb the dust.
  3. WASH all items as specified by the manufacturer. You may want to wash everything twice before wearing or using.
