In Belfast, trees start releasing pollen in late March. This is the beginning of pollen season. It's a time when trees like oak, birch, and hazel produce yellow dust.
The pollen count is highest in April. This means there's a lot of pollen in the air. It's a bad time for people who react to pollen. They might feel uncomfortable.
In May, grasses start producing pollen. This adds to the amount of pollen in the air. It's a busy time for plants, but not great for people who react to pollen.
By July, pollen season starts to slow down. Fewer plants are releasing pollen. The air is cleaner, and people who react to pollen might start to feel better.
