Asbestos for flooring? Who thought of this? Somebody punch that guy! I guess since there were not that many options available back then. And since the innovation of plastics and polypropylene there have been many new ways to do wooden flooring. <a>Deck tiles</a> made from Ipe and other woods are a much better solution than asbestos.

It's a good thing I saw this blog post in time. We are just about to take up the tile in another room and my husband and I have been thinking it could be asbestos. We were told it was okay to rip it up because it doesn't get in the air, and I was wondering "well what about small fibers coming off of it?" Thank you so much! Wow!

Most other countries i.e. Japan, Europe, Australia have banned the use of it. What i find odd is that the United States has not banned the use of asbestos.
