Help please Asbestos Freak out!

7 years ago

My husband had old tiles in our basement and laundry room removed.After the fact! found out that they were asbestos tiles many were chipped and broken up into small pieces. Knowing that the particles are airborne and the dangers asbestos poses,should I dispose of all my clothes and anything else that is porous that I had in my laundry room?

Wash your clothes and wash the walls and floors keeping a mask on if you are really worried . Anything that was done wrong can’t be fixed now the particles have long since settled wherever so the best is just water to keep them from moving around again and clean everything.
