Arecently released scientific white paper suggested humidifiers may play an important role in reducing the survival of the flu virus on both surfaces and in the air. The research suggested that homes kept between 40% and 60% relative humidity are likely to have fewer flu viruses lingering in the air and on such commonly touched surfaces as sink faucets, door handles and countertops.


 


 


Best used in medium-sized rooms, the Vicks Starry Night humidifier operates between 18 hours and 24 hours on a 1-gallon tank. The product’s built-in scent pad heater works with Vicks Soothing Vapors VapoPads.


 


 


The Vicks Starry Night Cool Moisture humidifier (V3700) has a suggested retail price of $54.99, and currently is available through Toys"R"Us, Kmart, Walgreens and on Amazon.com.
