Replacing carpet with tile is a good step to control the environment for a child with asthma as carpets can harbor dust mites and other particles that can trigger asthma symptoms. Using pesticides can actually worsen asthma symptoms, and having a pet sleep in the child's room can also worsen asthma. Additionally, using a fireplace can also worsen asthma symptoms by releasing smoke and other irritants into the air.
