Michigan’s choking on Canadian wildfire smoke, and experts warn that just closing windows isn’t enough—your home’s carpets and furniture might be making indoor air worse than outside. Filtration systems are key to trapping smoke particles and neutralizing stink, especially for asthma sufferers. Some folks are even booking hotels for cleaner air. In your car? Roll up the windows and use recirculate mode to create a smoke-free bubble. And don’t forget: hydrate, check on neighbors, and band together—because when nature throws a smoke bomb, community care matters as much as clean air.
