I got the Vick's cool air humidifier.  (the cool air is supposed to be better)   I think it was about $30 and works pretty well.\n\nI wouldn't' think that trying to make one at home would be a good idea.  Something about sticking my head over a hot pot of water just doesn't sound safe.

How to reduce allergens around the home:\n\n•Use HEPA Air Filters In Every Room Where You Spend A Lot Of Time.\noHEPA stands for High Efficiency Particulate Air, and a HEPA filter captures 99.97% of all particles. 3 microns or larger. That's 240 times smaller than the width of a human hair. \n•Keep Humidity Low.\noMoisture is a breeding ground for dust mites and mold. Keep humidity below 50% by using an air conditioner in the summer and a dehumidifier in the winter.\n•Install Filters In Your Heating/Cooling Systems.\noFilters are easy to install on most systems, and they seal off an often-overlooked allergen pathway into your home. \n•Replace Wall-to-Wall Carpeting With Washable Rugs.\noCarpets are a breeding ground for dust mites, mold, bateria, and other irritants that can aggravate allergy and asthma symptoms.\n\n•Vacuum Thoroughly And Often.\noIf removing carpeting isn't an option, it's important to vacuum frequently. But beware of traditional vacuums. They actually spew more dust, pollen, mold, pet dander, and bacteria into the air than they remove. \n•Replace Heavy Curtains And Draperies With Washable, Lightweight Curtains.\noMold, bacteria, dust mites, and other airborne allergens thrive in thick curtains and drapes, just as they do in deep carpets.\n\nHow to reduce dust around the home:\n\n•Encase Your Bedding In Allergy Relief Products.\noThis first step is essential, because, right now, millions of dust mites are thriving in your mattress and pillows. Putting mite-proof encasings on all your bedding, including your box spring and comforter, creates a protective barrier so you can sleep soundly and symptom-free. \n\n•Wash Sheets And Pillowcases Often.\noIt's important to do this once a week. If you wash your linens with AllerWash, you can wash them in any temperature. If not, be sure to use hot water.\n\n•Store Clothing In Drawers And Closets.\noKeep them closed to minimize dust. This, in turn, will prevent mites from breeding.\n\n•Clean And Treat Your Carpets, Rugs, And Upholstered Furniture.\noIf possible, avoid carpeting and upholstered furniture altogether. If this is not an option, treat with a solution designed to neutralize dust mite allergens. \n\nHow to protect against pet dander:\n\n•PROTECT YOURSELF AGAINST PET DANDER\noDander forms on animal's skin and fur, causing your allergy miseries. Unfortunately, the only sure-fire way to end your suffering is to remove the pet. If your not willing to part with your furry companion, here are some specific steps you can take to minimize your reaction.\n\n•Control Where Your Pet Sleeps.\noDon't allow your pet to sleep in your bedroom. Use a pet blanket or other bedding that can be washed frequently in hot water.\n\n•Bathe And Treat Your Pet's Coat.\noUse a pet shampoo that is specially formulated to reduce dander. Also use a dander-inhibiting solution.\n\n•Use A HEPA Filter.\n\nMINIMIZE MOLD\nBathrooms, basements, and kitchens are common areas for mold, but mold flourish in virtually any warm, moist, poorly lit area-such as behind wall paper, under carpets, and in air ducts. \n•Install Exhaust Fans.\noExhaust fans in the kitchen and bathroom help keep humidity low so mold can't thrive as easily.\n\n•Use A Safe But Strong Cleaning Solution.\noBe sure it's one specially formulated to eliminate mold and mildew. Then apply a chemical-free mold inhibiting treatment. Doing both produces the most effective solution.\n\n•Limit Houseplants Inside Your Home.\noMold grows on plants and in potting soil. Using an allergen sealing spray on those you keep helps prevent mold spores from becoming airborne.\n\n•Store Old Books Properly.\noBooks, especially old ones, are a major source of mold. Store them in tightly sealed containers under very low humidity.

There are a number of brands of ozonators on the market. They fall into 2 categories:\n1) Corona discharge units, which are harder to find and \n2) light generation units, which are more common.\nBoth have good and bad points. You can get them through most pool retail stores. Might be a special order item, but still available.\nHaving said that, I personally don' like the things. They give a false sense of security. You get to depending on them and then suddenly they let you down! You find out "after the fact" that the ozonator has quit working. Also, it's hard to test for ozone. Best advice: Stay away.

Although air purifiers don’t generally absorb gases, such as perfume and cigarette odors, good ones will remove tiny airborne particles of dust, dander, tobacco smoke, soot, mold and pollen. \n\nThe best information I received about purifiers was from a February 2002 rating by Consumer Reports. Now I have a lifetime subscription due to all the dependable information.\nHere is a little more info on air filters:\nWHOLE-HOUSE AIR FILTERS\nFor retrofitting homes with central air, CR advises that homeowners first try replacing the existing filter with a pleated electrostatic one, inexpensive and easy to install yourself. If that doesn’t help, CR recommends the electronic precipitator models, which collect particles on electrically charged plates.\n\nMODEL COST FILTRATION METHOD\nAprilaire 5000 $500 Collector plates\nCarrier AIRA $500 Collector plates \n3M Filtrete Ultra Allergen Reduction 1250 $15 Pleated \nPortable Room Air Cleaners \nA fan draws air through, and particles are trapped in either a HEPA filter or on collector \nplates. These three can filter an area about 500 sq. ft.\n\nMODEL COST FILTRATION METHOD\nFriedrich C-90A $475 Collector plates\nWhirlpool AP45030HO $250 HEPA filter\nBionaire BAP-1300 $220 HEPA filter
