Pollen allergies cause symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, and itchy eyes. They occur when plants release pollen into the air.
In Ingolstadt, Germany, pollen seasons vary by plant type. Tree pollen season starts in March and lasts until May.
Grass pollen season begins in May and ends in July. Weed pollen season starts in July and ends in September.
During pollen seasons, people with allergies should stay indoors, use air purifiers, and wear masks when outdoors to reduce exposure to pollen.
When pollen counts are high, we suggest doing these things to help with allergies, especially on windy days when pollen is flying around.
