Like mowing the lawn; being around a smell that bothers you; not wanting to inhale hazardous dust
I wore masks before they were a thing. I always wore on planes because the smell of diesel fumes and nasty plane smell made me nauseous. As if the motion sickness weren't bad enough. Any other alternative?
What about when i make laundry soap and the dust from borax is in the air?
Allergens like pollen can effect your eyes too so you'd need a full face deal or at least some tight goggles to go with a respirator.
