Our quick top tips
For allergy sufferers, there are some quick and easy wins to help you fight the pollen season:
- Get used to checking the pollen count on a daily basis so that you can plan your day.
- Avoid drying clothes outside when the count is high as the pollen will stick to the clothes.
- Plan outdoor activities after any rain – the pollen count is lower after a shower.
- When you come home change your clothes so that you are not wearing clothes with pollen indoors and allowing the pollen to spread around the house.
- Deep clean the house before spring so you are not sneezing and suffering whilst disturbing dust.
- Clean mould in the bathroom regularly to avoid the spread of mould spores.
- Ensure you have good ventilation in the bathroom and kitchen to remove excess moisture to avoid damp.
- Lower damp levels mean less mould spores and dust mites. If necessary buy a dehumidifier to reduce moisture levels.
- Make your bedroom an allergy-free haven where you can rest and get a good night’s sleep.
