Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral fiber known for its heat resistance and durability. It was commonly used in building materials but poses health risks when disturbed, leading to respiratory issues and diseases. Generally, you can't tell whether a material contains asbestos simply by looking at it, unless it is labeled. If in doubt, treat the material as if it contains asbestos and leave it alone. Proper handling and removal of asbestos are crucial to prevent exposure.
