Pollen allergies affect many people in Galanta, Slovakia. Trees, grasses, and weeds release pollen, causing symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, and itchy eyes.
Galanta's pollen season starts in February with hazel and alder tree pollen. Birch tree pollen follows in March. These trees pollinate for 2-3 weeks.
Grasses pollinate from May to July, releasing high amounts of pollen into the air. This is the longest and most intense pollen season in Galanta.
Weeds like nettle and sorrel pollinate from July to September. Their pollen counts are lower, but still cause symptoms in allergic people.
When pollen counts are high, we suggest doing these things to help with allergies, especially on windy days when pollen is flying around.
