Pollen allergies make people feel unwell. They cause symptoms like runny nose, itchiness, and sneezing. Pollen is the fine powder from plants that makes seeds.
Skovlunde, Denmark has trees that produce pollen. Birch, oak, and hazel trees release pollen in the spring. This pollen season usually starts in March and lasts until May.
Grasses and weeds also produce pollen. They release it in the summer and early fall. This pollen season starts in June and lasts until August.
Pollen counts are highest on warm, sunny days. Rain and wind can lower pollen counts. Knowing when pollen seasons happen can help people prepare and feel better.
When pollen counts are high, we suggest doing these things to help with allergies, especially on windy days when pollen is flying around.
