Allergies Triggered by Birds


Birds are one of the most popular pets in the United States. They are also one of the fiercest causes of allergies. Generally it is the protein in the dander that causes people to have such strong reactions---sneezing, coughing, watery eyes, and congestion.

And since these dead skin flakes (dander) attach to feathers, dried pieces of feces, and other more normal household pollutants like dust, it is difficult to get control of air quality.

The best way to keep bird dust and dander down, and air quality high is to filter the air continually. Bird-related pollutants are constant and if you are going to be able to get your allergies under control, filtration needs to be constant as well.

The best type of filter for particles like dander, dust, and feathers is a HEPA filter. High efficiency particles arresting filters are able to remove 99,997 out of every 10,000 particles that are .3 microns or greater, with a micron being defined as one millionth of a meter.
