Pollen allergies are a common problem in Lovča, Croatia. Trees, grasses, and weeds release tiny particles into the air, causing symptoms like sneezing, congestion, and itchy eyes.
In Lovča, pollen seasons start in February with tree pollen from oak, hazelnut, and birch trees. This lasts until May, with peak levels in March and April.
Grass pollen season begins in May and ends in July, with the highest levels in June. Weed pollen takes over in July and August, causing symptoms until October.
To minimize symptoms, stay indoors during peak pollen hours, keep windows closed, and use air purifiers. Wash clothes and shower after spending time outside to remove pollen particles.
When pollen counts are high, we suggest doing these things to help with allergies, especially on windy days when pollen is flying around.
