If you have a microscope then you can positively identify the asbestos.
Asbestos was commonly used in 1970s that was in this type of products: pipe insulation;
furnace and boilers ducts; millboard; cement sheet and also the paper used as insulation around furnace; backing on vinyl floor sheets and resilient floor tiles; sound-proofing and
decoration materials that were sprayed on ceiling and walls ; shingles and house siding. So I think if you have to concern about any other items in your home then contact an asbestos expert.
Inhaling asbestos fibers can increase the risk of cancer(lungs cancer and also mesothelioma which is cancer of chest lining). Many people inhale the small amount of asbestos during their whole life without any adverse affects. But if lager amount of asbestos is inhaled then risk would be greater. Asbestos professional can perform a range of services but confirm that the asbestos professional has completed state training course.
