Most of us are familiar with outdoor allergens and even hear about pollen counts on the local news. However, many people suffer from indoor allergies as well. For indoor allergy sufferers, the colder months provide little relief from these allergens due to the increased amount of time spent indoors. The sneezing and itching continue, and the allergens can lead to more severe symptoms such as wheezing and respiratory infections. To combat indoor allergens, it's important to understand where they're coming from and how to control them to make sure you stay healthier in your home, not only this season but year-round.
Mold thrives in damp environments. This makes bathrooms, basements, laundry rooms or anywhere with unseen leaks mold's favorite place to grow. Once mold grows, mold spores are released into your indoor air, contributing to dust and allergy/asthma symptoms.
What You Can Do:
You may think that those allergic to animals that it's the animal's hair that is the problem. This is not the case. The allergic reaction comes from the pet dander, which is the animal's dead skin cells, similar to human dandruff. Animal saliva and other bodily substances also are causes for allergic reactions. There are some breeds that produce less dander than other, but there is no such thing as a truly hypoallergenic animal.
What You Can Do:
This is one of the most common household allergens. Dust mites are tiny insects that feed on human skin and although they can survive anywhere, they prefer bedding and cloth materials like carpeting. Dust mites don't bite, rather they themselves and their waste can cause serious respiratory problems.
