FREE Radon Test Kits January 3th- January 31st 8:30am-4:30pm. Langlade Co Health Dept 1225 Langlade Rd., Antigo. Radon is a colorless, odorless radioactive gas that results naturally when uranium, thorium, and radium break down in rocks, soil, and water. It leaks into a home through cracks and gaps in the foundation. When radon is breathed in the particles stick to your lungs and can lead to lung cancer if exposed over a long period of time. This is a concern to people in our community as radon is the number 2 leading cause of lung cancer in the United States, right behind smoking.
