DH is a qualified electrician, but he works in industry not within peoples homes. He is fitting some lights in ILs hallway as a free favour(those little round flush fit ones) and upon drilling the holes has discovered a layer of asbestos above the plaster.
I only know this as I called him to ask MIL if she had a washbag dd1 could borrow for trip next week, he told me then. Apparently he has some rubber mask on his dad had in the garage and he thinks that is fine. I asked him if he has the dust on his clothes/hair and he does apparently.
I have told him to leave it, sponge of his clothes, shower and get them to call an expert on asbestos tomorrow, but he's just got cross with me and said he's busy. I called him an idiot and hung up.
I'm pissed off at his stupidity and very concerned at the same time, am I overreacting?
