Pollen allergies make people feel unwell. They cause sneezing, runny noses, and itchy eyes. Trees, grasses, and weeds release pollen into the air.
In Telkibánya, Hungary, pollen season starts in February. Trees like hazel and alder release pollen until April. Then, grasses and weeds take over until July.
In spring, birch and oak trees release pollen. This is usually from March to May. People with pollen allergies feel worst during this time.
In autumn, weeds like ragweed and nettle release pollen. This is usually from July to September. People with pollen allergies need to be careful during this time.
When pollen counts are high, we suggest doing these things to help with allergies, especially on windy days when pollen is flying around.
