I have a house built in 1969 in Long Island NY. I had a home inspection done when I bought the house 4 years ago. He never mentioned asbestos. Anyway I was in the basement cleaning up some old bins and noticed one of these white wraps around the pipes near the ceiling had fell down on the floor. I did not touch it. It is white on the outside with metal bands wrapped around it holding it on. The only thing it says on it is 3/4 x 1/2 or something like that. It is yellowish inside the wide wrap. I am kinda freaked out. I have included a picture of one of them that is still up on the pipe. Thanks everyone!
20 plus of prolonged ingestion increases your chance of lung disease by 5 % or something like that. a piece on the floor is just a piece on the floor unless you are incredibly allergic or something
