Guest guest Posted June 11, 2006 Report Share Posted June 11, 2006 Tom - I've never heard of that hurting dogs...I'll see if I can find more info on that for you. The main thing when using a humidifier is to keep it spotless. People stopped using them years ago because they were getting sick. My family doctor told me that they are good to use, but you have to clean it...otherwise, bacteria and fungus will grow inside them....it's warm and moist...great breeding ground. So, don't just keep adding water to it....and I'll check my sources about the dog. --Diane Quinlan dianequinlan@... scoliosis/PF/2004 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 11, 2006 Report Share Posted June 11, 2006 Hi Tom, haven't heard much from you. How are ya doing ? Still praying for you. Peggy 09/04 ipf , I use a humidifier every night and I seem to cough less in the morning but I have a dry cough no congestion. I have also found that putting a few drops of eucalyptus oil in the humidifier makes a big difference but stopped using it because we read it could be harmfull to dogs.
