Tips for Keeping Spring Allergies at Bay

Try out these suggestions to reduce the allergens in your home this spring.

While spring is a time of beautiful weather and blooming flowers, it is also one of the worst times of year for allergy sufferers.   With all the dust and pollen floating around, there's not a lot that you can do to avoid allergens outside.   However, there are steps that you can take to keep allergens from infiltrating your home this spring.   Here are some of the suggestions that you should try.
  • Dust Smarter
While dusting is a great way to trap the dust and allergens that settle on hard surfaces, it's important that you vacuum the area after you dust.   This will take care of the allergens that fall and settle on the ground as you dust.   Finally, to stop dust from resettling on your hard surfaces, make sure you apply a thin layer of furniture polish to repel dust and allergens.
  • Wash Your Bedding
Dust settles on your plush surfaces just as it does on your hard surfaces; it's just harder to see.   To ensure that you're not cuddling up in a bed full of allergens every night, make sure that you wash your bedding on a regular basis.   To take care of dust in between laundry days, you can run your blankets, sheets, pillowcases, and so on through the dryer with a damp towel.   The towel will attract dust while the tumbling action of your dryer will fluff your bedding and leave it feeling fresh.
  • Filter Your Air
Finally, to deal with the allergens floating around in the air, you should invest in a HEPA filter for your home.   These filters can remove 100% of airborne pollen and ragweed particles.   Additionally, these filters can also eliminate 99.9% of other allergens from the air inside your home. These are some of the suggestions that you should try to keep allergens at bay this season.   Are you looking for assistance with your shipping needs this spring?   If so, turn to the experts at MDS, Inc.   Located in Southern California, we're your custom courier & mail delivery service experts for all your mail and delivery needs in Los Angeles, Long Beach, Irvine, and Orange County.   Contact us for more information today.
