Description
Hey, I lost my blue ProAir inhaler yesterday around 3pm outside the Trader Joe's on Stockdale Highway near Valley Plaza Mall. It's a compact blue inhaler with a white mouthpiece cap and a red ProAir ring around the base; there’s a small scratch along the bottom edge and a tiny sticker with the date 07/23 on the cap. The inhaler is essential for my daily asthma management, and I’ve been anxious about needing it during workouts and workdays. If you found it, please drop it off at the Bakersfield Lost & Found or message me here. I’d really appreciate getting it back.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
