Serving Proudly As The Voice Of Valley County Since 1913
Dear Editor,
It's no secret that Montana is seeing an uptick in tourism, and more Valley County residents are offering vacation rentals through services like Airbnb and Vrbo. To be the best host, be sure your rental is smoke free.
Not only does tobacco smoke stain and stink up carpets and drapes but smoking inside can result in burn marks on counters and tabletops and increased fire risk. Worse yet, secondhand smoke is a health hazard for your renters, putting them at risk for cancer, heart disease, asthma and other serious health problems.
Nothing prevents you from making your rental smoke free. You can even prevent guests from using all smokable products, including e-cigarettes and marijuana, if you wish.
To get more information on implementing a smoke free policy, and for free smoke free signs, contact Valley County Tobacco Prevention Specialist at 406-228-6261or visit tobaccofree.mt.gov.
Sincerely,
Valley County Tobacco
Prevention Specialist
