wearing face masks in zihua

I am starting to get my travel box filled with items to bring to my house in Zihua, and I wanted to stock up on face masks. Not having worn face masks in heat/high humidity like Zihua has right now, I was wondering what folks there are finding comfortable and what is available for purchase in Zihua? I do not like the paper ones, I find them to be too itchy. Gracias

There are a plethora of options for cloth facemasks here. Many of them follow the recommendations for at least two layers and cotton materials that seem to work the best. You can find them for a range of prices. We have purchased a set from one of the businesses downtown for 40 pesos each which has a third layer inside for better filtering. My suggestion would be to get some while you are here.

Like he said.

Scads of choices here, all different types of fabrics, layers, etc. We have been paying 30 p. They are all very inexpensive.

Are you getting doggie masks too???

I agree that the safest mask (apart from those of medical professionals) is the 3 layers. $40 pesos each is a good price. We wear the masks throughout Zihua and have had no adverse effects other than an itchy nose a few times.

Thanks for the replies here and one privately, I guess I will wait until I hopefully can get there! No my dog will not be wearing a mask, though she would love chewing it up. Don't get me st arted.
