Springtime is the season of allergies

Springtime is the season of allergies. Pollens are every where. If you are susceptible to allergies, then I have a few tips for you.

• Stay indoors on dry, windy days — the best time to go outside is after a good rain, which helps clear pollen from the air.
• No lawn mowing, weed pulling and other gardening chores
  
• Remove clothes you've worn outside. You may also want to shower to rinse pollen from your skin and hair.
• Ban your pets from your bed or couch.
• Don't hang laundry outside — pollen can stick to sheets and towels.
• If you do outside chores, wear a dust mask.
• Run the air conditioning in your house and car.
• Vacuum carpets weekly
