Higher humidity promotes the growth of mold, mildew, and dust mites.

These can irritate the respiratory system, worsen allergies, and contribute to poor air quality, which may pose long-term health risks.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9_Look_At_the_Furniture_If_They_Need_Any_Remolding\"><\/span><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">9.
