Another beautiful day...

There is downside to the spring colors in southern California.

...Pollen/Allergies...

Pollen can make life miserable for many of us here in southern California. But...there is a few steps that can be taken to relieve some of the symptoms from seasonal allergies.

• Besure...to check and replace filters in your heating and cooling unit.
• Avoid being outdoors at sunrise and sunset...when pollens are at its peak.
• On windy days... avoid the outdoors if possible.
• Keep windows closed (especially in the early morning and late afternoon/early evening hours).
• Shower often (Pollen is collected collects in the hair and scalp).
