ACCHHOOO!!!


Pollen season is upon us, at least for us in the south! The weather is beautiful, the flowers blooming, and  icky greenish clouds of pollen can be seen from a distance. You all know what I'm talking about, especially when we don't any rain to help wash away the blanket of pollen that settles on everything!



Keeping that pollen out of your home can be almost impossible, I've got some tips to help with that.

  •  Keep windows closed in the home and the air conditioning or fans on.
  • Change your air conditioning filters regularly to allow for reduced pollen particles in your home.
  • Shower before bed or wash up well to remove any pollen from your hair, skin and face.
  • Give your Fido and Kitty a bath regularly as they can track the pollen into the home and move it around. Pet hair attracts pollen easily.
  • Dust and dust often with a good micro-fiber cloth that is slightly damp to absorb as much pollen as possible. 
  • Vacuum carpets often with a strong HEPA vacuum. Consider vacuuming hard floor surfaces regularly as well. Daily vacuum by your entrances and wash doormats often.
  • Purchase a good Air Purifier. Even a low cost purifier like the Thermax Air Purifier for under $30 works great. The water captures everything and the purifier is cheap enough to place in all bedrooms.
  • Wash clothes immediately after being outdoors when the pollen count is high.

Giving your home a good Spring cleaning, (or as we call them Deep Squeaks) once the pollen season is over, well help rid the hidden pollen that's hiding behind and under items.  I know, who has time for a super duper deep cleaning right?  That where a great maid company comes in!
