Pollen allergies affect people when plants release tiny grains into the air. These grains cause symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, and itchy eyes.
In Most, Czechia, pollen seasons occur at different times. Tree pollen season starts in late March and lasts until early May. Grass pollen season begins in mid-May and ends in July.
Weed pollen season takes place from late July to late September. Ragweed is a common allergenic weed in Most. Its pollen grains are very light and spread easily in the wind.
During pollen seasons, people can reduce symptoms by staying indoors, keeping windows closed, and using air purifiers. They can also wear masks when outdoors.
When pollen counts are high, we suggest doing these things to help with allergies, especially on windy days when pollen is flying around.
