There are plenty of steps you can take to cut down on allergens in your home. Take the following immediate actions to cut down on allergens:

  • Keep your home dry and well ventilated
  • Open windows for at least one hour, twice a day and keep vents open, particularly in kitchens and bathrooms
  • However, if you get hay fever keep the windows closed as much as possible during the peak of the pollen season
  • Don’t dry clothes indoors, especially in your bedroom or living room
  • If you have central heating, turn it down by a few degrees
  • Increase the ventilation if your home is very humid – a dehumidifier might help
