The DeKalb County Cooperative Extension Service would like to remind the community about the dangers of radon gas. Radon is the leading cause of lung cancer for non-smokers and is responsible for 830 deaths in Georgia each year. Taking the time to test for radon can help you prevent and reduce the entry of radon into your home.
For more information about the dangers of radon and to learn how to obtain a radon test kit, contact the DeKalb Cooperative Extension at 404-298-4080.
