Radon is one of the leading causes of lung cancer in the U.S. It is odorless, colorless and invisible. The gas is caused by a leaking of decaying soil around the base and under the home.
Radon is located all around the U.S. and has been a source of devastation to many, even here in Omaha, NE.
Witness to such devastation is Jenny Heyden of Shorewood, WI who's husbands cousin, died of metastasized lung cancer caused by radon in her basement in Omaha, NE.
