Rabbit tobacco can be used medicinally in several ways. Smoking the leaves is good for sinusitis, head colds, and congestion. In hot teas, it is used to treat sore throats, fevers, diarrhea, colds, flu, pneumonia, asthma, and coughs, as well as a mild nerve sedative, a diuretic, and an antispasmodic.
A CO alarm will alert you before the CO concentration reaches an acute level. But CO alarms do not last forever. The detecting components will lose their effectiveness after 5 to 7 years and may no longer detect carbon monoxide. First Alerts website states: âAfter 5 years any detector should be replaced with a new CO alarm.â COSTAR recommends replacing their CO alarms every 6 years or sooner.
Test the CO alarm frequently, at least twice a year when clocks are adjusted for daylight saving time, and replace dead batteries when necessary. Read the CO alarm's owner's manual to learn about the warning sounds and how to test the device. Unlike smoke alarms, CO alarms expire after several years.
