Did you know that radon can cause lung cancer in pets?  The Radon Man of Wisconsin can help protect your family and your furry family members.

​

While you and your family may spend time outside, your pets are indoors most of the time and are constantly exposed to radon.  Pets, especially cats, may spend a lot of time in the basement which is the first room that radon gas reaches as it rises from the soil to the air.

 

Pets have smaller lungs and prolonged exposure to radon gas can result in lung cancer.

​

Symptoms of radon poisoning in pets may not be noticeable until it is too late, and by then, the disease is typically advanced.

CanSAR(TM), a non-profit organization that aids and empowers radon-induced lung cancer survivors, published discussions by two women in Wisconsin who lost their beloved dogs to lung cancer with radon and contaminated water being identified as possible sources (Radon is Possible Culprit in the Passing of Wisconsin’s Woman’s Two Dogs, 2016).
