Take a look at some areas where First Defense Nasal Screens™ are being used today!
Allergies
Unfortunately there is no cure for allergies. Symptoms often last year-round and nasal allergies, which include hay fever, animal dander, dust mites, mould spores and pollen, can irritate people and cause sneezing, wheezing, runny nose and itchy, watery, red eyes. As the first line of defence for nasal passages. First Defence Nasal Screens help make these allergens a more manageable part of life.Travel & Recycled Air
Millions of travellers fly through the air each and every day exposing themselves to contaminated air from neighbouring sick passengers. While some airplanes have filters to clean this air, First Defence Nasal Screens will greatly reduce your chance of breathing in contaminated air from your fellow nearby neighbour. It is also a great way to further reduce the likelihood of airline staff and passenger sickness due to exposure to different high density cities with various levels of pollutions.Hiking & Winter Sports, Cyclists & Runners
Your nose has many small blood vessels running close the surface of the nasal passages. This allows your nose to heat the air you breath. When hiking or enjoying winter sports the air is much cooler than normal due to higher altitude and weather conditions. First Defence Nasal Screens act as an added filter to help keep some of the chill out. They are already being used by Soldiers in Afghanistan to fight against the harsh conditions of high altitude and cold winters. Pregnancy
Nearly 20 to25 percent of women of childbearing age suffer from allergies. During pregnancy expected mothers are cautioned not to use antihistamines out of fear of harming their unborn child. Many pregnant women go through extend periods of hay fever and allergy attacks without the relief of drugs causing a lot of stress and discomfort. First Defence Nasal Screens may help pregnant women with hay fever and allergy problems go out with added protection against pollutants that may instigate an attack without the need of taking drugs that may pose a danger to their child.Accommodation

Wearing First Defence Nasal Screens while sleeping in Hotels is an added protection against unhealthy contaminated air.Landscaping
Landscaping is considered as a high risk occupation due to a variety of contaminants being inhaled. First Defence Nasal Screens reduce the amount of dispersed grass and dust particles, chemicals and fertilisers a person might encounter while maintaining their lawn.Construction

Wearing First Defence Nasal Screens can eliminate odours and make simple activities like painting with acrylic & oil based paints just another activity.
