Ragweed Season Begins Today


Fall allergies, hay fever, and allergic rhinitis are generally caused by weed pollen. And the most notorious weed of the season is ragweed.

It is believed that each plant sends out over one million grains of pollen per season.

And most often the season last from mid august (August 15) through the end of October or until the first frost.

Ragweed is a tenacious plant that can and does grow anywhere. It can be found in your garden, by the side of the road, or in the heart of the city growing in the cracks of parking lots and sidewalks. For all the trouble it causes it is nondescript in appearance and should not be confused with colorful Goldenrod that also blooms in the fall.

Getting out of the way of these flying particles is next to impossible. They are so light weight that they travel for miles. This pollen attaches easily to hair, clothes, packages, and pets and floats in through open windows and doors into your indoor air.

Filtering your air constantly is the only way to effectively stop the build up of ragweed and other pollens to allergy triggering levels in your indoor air. And a high efficiency particle arresting or HEPA filter is the best choice for the job. And because airborne allergies are most often triggered by a combination of allergens—dust, dust mites, mold spores, and pet dander (to name a few) this type of filtration can remove 99,997 out of every 10,000 airborne allergens that are greater than .3 microns in size.
