As a beauty blogger, I’m used to facing many unusual questions, but this was a first. Yes, any foreign object lodged in your ear, whether an insect, a bead, or our pesky cotton swab, can be dangerous.

Current estimates for world production are about 25 million tonnes or 110 million bales annually, accounting for 2.5% of the world's arable land. India is the world's largest producer of cotton.

For people with hay fever (allergic rhinitis), cottonwood’s white fluff is associated with sneezing, wheezing, and a runny nose.

This huge majestic deciduous tree is also called the Alamo cottonwood as it is found in Texas and other southern US states. This cottonwood species is also classed as a riparian zone tree, meaning it thrives near rivers and streams. Jane Moira Taupin; Chesterene Cwiklik (2009). Forensic Examination of Clothing. p. 195.

While the 1802 Health and Morals of Apprentices Act had required that mills and factories have sufficient windows for proper ventilation, the reason for this had been to reduce bad smells in the working environment, not to try to remove harmful fibres from the air. This was because at the time diseases were believed to be transmitted by miasmata: decomposed material found in foul-smelling air, dirty water, and unhygienic living conditions. It was not until the Factory and Workshop Act of 1878 that it was stipulated that ventilation needed to be adequate ‘to render harmless, so far as is practicable, all the gases, vapours, dust, or other impurities generated in the course of the manufacturing process or handicraft carried on therein that may be injurious to health’. As a result, in the 1850s when Gaskell was writing, despite there being an association between lung conditions and working in cotton mills, it was up to the factory owner to decide if they would take any measures to protect the health of their workers. Some cotton mill owners would install a fan at one end of the carding room to carry off the cotton dust, but many chose not to as it was a large expense that brought in no profit. This meant that, as an article in the medical journal the Lancet noted in 1863, ‘A carder seldom lives in a cardroom beyond forty years of age. Many have to give up working much younger’.

After speaking to some brands and showing them the welfare advice and evidence that exists regarding fluffy bedding there has been some success, and brands such as Pettex, Lazy Bones and Petlife Safebed have decided to stop producing fluffy bedding. Instead the brands are producing safe paper bedding. Dryer lint, which collects on the lint screen of a clothes dryer, is highly flammable and therefore presents a fire hazard. [23] However, because of this flammability, dryer lint may be collected for use as tinder, [24] although burning man-made fibres can produce toxic fumes. [25] Uses of lint [ edit ] Composting [ edit ] The scientific name of this cottonwood species is from the triangularly-shaped leaves. The “delta” leaves are between 1.5” to 4” long (4 – 10 cm) and about the size at their widest part. You will notice the leaves have a serrated edge and the curved triangle shape tapers to a sharp, elongated point.
