About that Canadian Smoke,,,

We had some descending ash from 18 May until 21st. Since then it hasn’t been too bad. Either that I just don’t notice it any more. A wee bit hazy with smell of smoke today.

My son is darn-near hospitalized when the smoke gets bad. So far, we're doing fine but of course early in the year.

Does anyone here have a gadget that measures the air quality inside your home? I'd like to measure by our front door, as well as other areas of the house, but not sure how much to spend in order to get an accurate handheld device which can reset and reread air quality repeatedly as I stagger around inside and outside gasping.
We've got several air filters so far in 3 rooms, I'm thinking I may need more. Or, raise or lower the humidity so the air purifiers are more efficient at screening out the smoke.

Is there any truth the thought that these wildfires would be less severe with more forest management? Clearing away of underbrush, more clearing of deadwood, etc…?

For specific forests maybe, but overall I’ve heard wildfires are natural clearing events and trying to prevent them only makes them more potent? Clearly I’m no expert.
