Hi Man!

Let me explain it, Radon is a naturally occurring gas that is a product of radioactive decay of common rocks, such as granite.

It is a colorless, odorless gas. The only way to know if you have a radon problem is to do testing. Either with simple detectors that you can buy from certified labs for under $20, or with direct reading instruments similar to a geiger counter.

Radon is the number 2 cause of lung cancer after smoking, so it is important to test and find out if you have a problem. Mitigation is a completely different answer, and depends on way too many factors to get into here. Call an expert if you have a radon problem, since your local experts know more about your specific circumstances.

Radon measurement isn't much tough as you can use short test kits and long test kits for it.
