Respirator masks as opposed to cheap dust masks are the best when sanding down a floor. Douglas fir is not one that has a lot of problems.

Wood shops should have a good vac system around tool usage areas and good exhaust and ventilation systems. The dust can be a fire hazard with heaters that get it into their internals.

Likewise the fumes from a lot of wood working chemicals are best avoided or done outside.

Thank you for the link.
I notice no fruit trees are listed such as cherry.
