Environmental sensitivity refers to an individual's heightened susceptibility to environmental stimuli, such as chemicals, pollutants, or allergens.

This sensitivity can manifest in various ways, affecting physical health, emotional well-being, and overall quality of life.
Hard-wired "home" type smoke detectors can not be adjusted for sensitivity. Detectors that appear "too" sensitive are usually very dirty or located in the wrong place. Carefully review the lengthy instructions that come with each detector with regard to selecting a location. Avoid: high air velocity areas such as near air conditioner vents, areas outside bathroom doors where steam vapors waft out, kitchen areas where the cooking smoke can get to the detector before disapaiting Studio apartments pose an obvious problem. You can try cleaning the detector to make it less sensitive by following the manufacturer's cleaning instructions, but when in doubt, replace it. Isn't your life worth $10.00?

Sometimes, people just have very sensitive nipples. Unless you are over 18, have breast tenderness, and/or discharge from your nipples, I wouldn't worry about it too much. (If you are under 18 and going through puberty, sensitive nipples and breasts - that's right, guys have 'em too - are 100% normal.)
