Think your home doesn't have pet dander?

You're probably wrong, according to a new study. A report on the study by CBS News notes:

The study found that, although dogs and/or cats resided in only 49.1 percent of the homes, there was dander in between 99.9 and 100 percent of residences. The study also found that the majority of U.S. homes sustain allergen levels exceeding proposed sensitization thresholds.

In between 99.0 and 100 percent?

I'm still not getting a cat or dog for my kids, because I am allgergic to cats, and I'm sure that having one around would make it even worse than what's already here.
