Radon is a colorless, odorless, tasteless gas that can negatively impact our health.  On this episode of Talking FACS, Dr. Stacy Stanifer and Hardin Stevens share how we can test our homes to see if radon is a concern for our living spaces.  They provide information about finding mitigation specialists if we determine that radon is impacting where we live.
