About 75% of people who experience spring allergies also have allergy symptoms between early August to late September. In Indiana, ragweed is an extremely common allergen, and can truly put a damper on fall activities. With COVID causing heightened concern about stray sneezes and coughing, it’s tempting to let allergies hold us back from enjoying the cooler weather. To fight back, here are a few tips to keep your family safe and healthy this season:

1. Change your air filters regularly. We often forget to handle this regular home maintenance task, and it can have a huge impact on preventing allergies. Make sure to change your air filters every 90 days at least, and consider every 45-60 days if you have pets in your home.
2. Eliminate mold in your home. Allergens like mold can seriously affect your family’s health. Deep cleaning spaces in your home that are often damp is an important way to stop mold growth. Kitchen sinks and bathrooms are notorious for high mold count, and regular sanitation is vital to keeping these spaces free from mold and other allergens.
3. Reduce dust and dirt. Letting dust, dirt, and pet hair and dander build up in your home can also impact your family’s health. Dusting and vacuuming regularly can help improve the air quality in your home, reducing seasonal allergies symptoms.
