Bedding question

I have a small barn with two stalls in use. I currently use Equine Fresh. It is leaving a terrible dust film on everything in my barn and chokes me up when I go to clean stalls. Never mind it states its "dust free" on package. I really do not have a place to store a large pile of sawdust, so is there anything else that would be easy for me to use??? My stalls are lined with stall skins. Thanks

Well I wet it at first, then usually wet it again a week or two later. But still getting a nasty film over eveything. Oh well, guess I have to keep wetting it down. Seems like lots of work!

It's really a good idea to wet it down every day. When it is dry like this, I even find myself wetting the regular sawdust down every day.
Mixing Equine Fresh with regular sawdust or pine shavings will help some.

Thanks trying that today. I still dont have water yet at my barn so I have to drag a hose over to wet it down. Cleaning dusty stalls with bronchitis sucks!!
