Relief From Pigweed Allergies


Late summer signals the growth and pollination of pigweed. This small, scrubby little weed usually makes its entrance late in the summer when the soil is dry and the grass is less dense.

It is prolific at seed and pollen production. The good news is that it is often used as pig fodder. The bad news is that if you are allergic to it, each plant can potentially send out thousands of pollen grains.

There’s not much you can do to control outdoors, but you can control how much of it stays in your air indoors.

Filtering the air with an air cleaner that is specifically designed to remove pollen and other allergens from the air is one of the best solutions.

Pigweed is not the only weed that sends out pollen during the late summer and early fall. So it is best to choose an air purifier that can also remove pollen from ragweed, curly dock, lambs quarters, pigweed, plantain, sheep sorrel and sagebrush as well.

In addition to these seasonal pollens the best cleaner should also be able to eliminate normal household allergens that can also trigger allergies such as household dust, dust mites, mold and mildew spores and pet dander.

PurerAir.com offers the Hay Fever Air Purifier for effective and long-lasting relief from allergies triggered by seasonal pollens. See it now at http://purerair.com/hay_fever_air_purifier.html

Ragweed Allergy Symptoms


As summer winds down ragweed is growing up along the side of the roads, in between cracks on the sidewalk, and in the neighbor’s untended yard.

And once it matures it will send out millions of spores to help it continue to thrive. If you are allergic to ragweed, this is not such good news.

Symptoms for this allergy are like those caused by most airborne irritants. You probably experience sneezing, coughing, watery eyes, and congestion when outdoors particularly on dry, windy days.

And even if you don’t see this trouble making weed, the ugly truth is that spores can travel for miles from where the original plant released them. So moving to another neighborhood won’t make a bit of difference.

What you can do is avoid the trigger. Pick times to be outdoors when there are known to be fewer spores in the air.

And filter the air indoors with a HEPA or high efficiency particle arresting purifier that can remove airborne particles (such as ragweed pollen) as small as .3 microns in size.

Fall is such a beautiful time of year. It would be a shame to let ragweed pollen spoil the season for you again this year. Let the Hay Fever Air Purifier help you enjoy fall like you never have before.

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.

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.

Fall doesn’t have to be a season that you dread any longer. Put the Hay Fever Air Purifier to work for you. And there's no better time to literally nip this problem in the bud than now! See it at http://purerair.com/hay_fever_air_purifier.html

Happy fall!

Allergy and Asthma Air Purifier

If you suffer from allergies, asthma or any other respiratory condition, you know that effective management and control can mean the difference between just living from day to day and having a quality of life that will allow you to enjoy all that the world has to offer.

Part of any good management plan for allergies and asthma should include removal of airborne allergens that trigger flare ups most quickly. And whereas nothing can be done about allergens outdoors, if you suffer from seasonal allergies the number of outdoor pollutants found inside will increase.

Flower and tree pollen in the spring, grass pollen in the summer, and fall pollens such as ragweed find their way into your home through doors and windows, on clothes and packages, and on pets. Add these to normal indoor pollutants like dust, dust mites, pet dander, and mold spores and you’ve got poor air quality that is likely to make breathing difficult and raise your anxiety level.

A medical grade air purifier with a HEPA or high efficiency particle arresting filter and carbon cloth for additional particulate, gas and odor filtration is essential to keep flare ups at bay and avoid peaks in attacks when seasonal allergens are present.
