Allergens through the Year

Through the year there are different times that different allergens affect each individual. Though Spring and Summer when many people suffer most

• January – Though there is less pollen in the winter, if the heating is up full can raise the house dust
• February – Mould from trees
• March- Tree pollen remain high, grasses, and pollens may start coming out
• April – Pollen from the flowers and grass, can be high in April
• May – Tree pollination continues, and grass pollen
• June – High grass pollen month in many areas. As the days get longer and the temperature gets higher, often spend more time outdoors so more susceptible
• July – Grass pollen subsiding. Fungus spores and seeds.  Mould can grow on fallen leaves, compost piles, grasses, and grains
• August – Mould spores, which peak during hot, humid weather
• September – Pollen grains are lightweight and spread easily, especially on windy days. Wet and windy autumn weather the pollen spreads
• October – Seasonal rain and wind can raise mould spores and fungi spores
• November – may be one of the best months for people with outdoor allergies. Indoor allergies to pet dander and indoor moulds raise
• December – Real Christmas trees can make you wheeze and sneeze. It’s likely not the tree itself that triggers allergies but the microscopic mould spores that can harbour in its branches
