- Dust. Along with excessive sneezing, dust can result in coughing, wheezing, itching, and shortness of breath. Additionally, dust can be a serious issue for those who suffer from asthma. Those with a serious dust allergy may want to consider removing their carpets and taking steps to reduce humidity in the home.
- Mold. A serious allergen for many Floridians, mold grows well in warm, damp spaces. Fortunately, installing a dehumidifier can do a great deal to dispel this threat.
- Pet Dander. Dander from cat and dog fur can trigger both asthma attacks and allergic reactions. Along with keeping pets off the furniture, families can cut down on pet dander allergies by vacuuming regularly and replacing air filters on a regular basis.
- Pollen. An allergy to pollen causes a number of symptoms including sneezing, itching, hives, and even swollen eyelids and breathing problems. Fortunately, cleaning out and replacing air filters on a regular basis can help reduce pollen and keep family members healthy.
- Pests. Is your home infested with cockroaches and other pests? If so, they may be causing your family to suffer allergy and asthma attacks among other problems. For this reason, it’s essential that you seek out the services of a professional exterminator to eliminate pests and preserve your family’s well-being.
