In Saint-Germain-en-Laye, France, pollen allergies affect many people. Trees, grasses, and weeds release pollen into the air, causing allergic reactions.
Tree pollen season starts in February and lasts until April. Oak, hazel, and birch trees are common allergy triggers. They release pollen early in the morning.
Grass pollen season begins in May and ends in July. Many grass species release pollen, causing allergic reactions. Peak pollen levels occur on warm, sunny days.
Weed pollen season starts in August and ends in October. Ragweed, nettle, and sorrel are common allergy triggers. Pollen counts are highest on windy days.
When pollen counts are high, we suggest doing these things to help with allergies, especially on windy days when pollen is flying around.
