Hello Mirella,

I would like to welcome you to the EmpowHER community. I hope I can offer some suggestions to help you with your child's dust allergy and sensitivity to humidity.

Remove any dust in your home using a damp rag or a duster that traps and locks dust in its fibers. This prevents dust from becoming airborne and resettling.

Vacuum carpeting and upholstered furniture regularly to remove surface dust.

Use a dehumidifier or air conditioner in your home to keep humidity below 50%. Purchase a hygrometer, which is available in hardware stores, to measure humidity levels.

I hope this is helpful.
