This leaves behind rough textures that ruin the wall finish and make it impossible to hang items or repaint smoothly without extensive patching.

Over years of exposure, symptoms like swollen eyes and severe congestion may persist without ever fully resolving, leaving owners stuck choosing between daily medication side effects or giving up their pets.
- 5Why is there so much dust and hair in my bed every day?Heavy daily accumulation of hair, dust, and tracked-in debris from pets fills handheld vacuums and sweeps up in handfuls every morning. For anyone who spends most of their time bedbound, this constant buildup forces manual cleaning routines just to clear away daily irritants.

This continuous exposure leads to persistent health issues and severe fatigue that disrupts daily work. Landlords are typically responsible for maintaining building ventilation and sealing structural wall penetrations to ensure a habitable living environment.
