One hundred respondents were chosen through purposive sampling. Interviews and survey were used to gather the information needed. Frequency distribution and relative frequency were used to analyze the demographic of the respondents. Likert scale and weighted mean were used in and measuring the factors associated with the occurrence of asthma attack Spearman’s Correlation and Two-Tailed Test were done to describe and analyze the between the frequency of attack and related factors. This study revealed that most asthmatic respondents were female and single. Majority reported that the first attack of asthma occurred during childhood. The common factors identified to cause asthma were dust, climate/weather, air pollution, smoke/smog, walking, running, climbing stairs and exercising. Dust often asthma while the other factors caused asthma attack, sometimes only. Environmental factors and activities like walking, climbing, exercising and doing household chores were significantly related to the frequency of asthma attack.
