Oops! Didn't know that; thanks. I was thinking of using 'Borax', the powder sold in grocery stores.

Whenever you change filters have a garbage bag right there to inclose it, wear a face mask and googles that fit tight around your eyes. They explain what kind of face mask from the hardware store. Also i suggest a hat since dust can get in your hair and when you take the mask off it can be stirred upand breath it. I willget undressed in front of the washing machine and don't take my mask amd goggles off until i am in the shower. When you change vacuum cleaner bags be fully protected, too. This is the most intense exposure to dust and i went poking through a bag looking for a ring and got it inmy eyes and it damage my skin. I had on a mask but no goggles or hat.
