I called anther housekeeping company (Natural Maidens) and then went on a tear around my apartment - wiped down all the surfaces of the fan blades, damp mopped the floor in my bedroom, moved EVERYTHING around and damp mopped around the bed too. of course, that didnt really help my asthma much.

Next time you do housework, wear a mask or just improvise one with a bandanna. With a woodstove, I have to deal with a certain amount of ash and smoke. I think that being scrupulous about wearing a bandanna was pretty important when I was getting over bronchitis last month.
