Ragweed Pollen Allergy Management


Ragweed, as its name suggests, is a weed that grows in the summer and begins to send out pollen around August 15.

Pollination continues until the end of October and in many areas into the beginning of November when the first frost shuts it down.

This little nondescript plant sends out over one billion pollen granules which send hay fever sufferers running for cover. If you are one of those sufferers, you are not alone. Millions and millions of people suffer from fall allergies which can range from slightly annoying to causing weeks of misery.

Moving to another city won’t help because the pollen is so light weight and can travel for miles with the wind. Planting different plants in the garden won’t help for the same reason. But creating a safe place inside your home and office will.

HEPA or high efficiency particle arresting filtration has been proven to be best at removing fine particles like pollen from the air. Having an air cleaner that can run 24 hours every day 365 days of the year can eliminate not only pollen but other more usual particulates found in the home.

And since dust, dust mites, mold spores, and pet dander often serve as secondary triggers for allergies, taking them out of the air is a good idea and can only make the air healthier to breathe.
