There are two types of allergenic rhinitis (hay fever), seasonal and perennial which, like asthma, is an ever increasing, prevalent, and common health problem.

Seasonal allergic rhinitis often occurs in the spring and summer and is usually due to pollen from trees, grass and other plants, at the time of year when pollen is most common.

Perennial allergic rhinitis is an allergic reaction typically known to be caused by mold spores, animal fur, pet dander, feathers, dust mites, house dust, and from the collected outdoor allergens we inadvertently transport indoors on our hair, hats, overcoats, shoes, and clothing.

Of the two, you more than likely suffer from the latter along with 70 million people, world-wide. That figure would likely double if everyone afflicted sought medical relief. In most cases allergenic rhinitis is a non-life threatening condition.

What is Allergenic Rhinitis?

Generally, allergenic rhinitis is triggered by an allergic reaction to an inhaled substance.

Some symptoms of allergic rhinitis:

1). Snoring

2). Congested or runny nasal cavity

3). Itchy, irritated nose

4). Red, watery, and/or itchy eyes

5). Sinus headaches

Change Housekeeping Practices to Decrease Allergens

The “grungiest” place in our homes is often in the bedroom…and in particular our beds, where we spend sleeping one-third of our lives. Because our bedrooms are generally unseen by guests, typically less time is spent on cleaning bedrooms as opposed to cleaning our front rooms or living areas.

Our bedrooms become, unknowingly, a "dumping ground" for allergens. After a day outside, at work, in a classroom, or away from home, the bedroom is the first place we go to change our clothing. The clothing attracts and collects a number of allergens such as pollen, dust, animal hairs, molds, and pet dander. In addition, the ideal micro-habitat provided within our unhygienic mattresses, pillows, and our bedding, lend to a perfect breeding ground for micro-organisms that include dust mites, mold, mildew, spores, pollen, bacteria and viruses.

Nowadays, utilizing a professional mattress cleaning service, a service that not only cleans your mattresses but also cleans all of the “soft furnishings” in your home, is extremely effective and very cost efficient. Technicians can also educate homeowners with tips to continually reduce indoor allergens and avoid the triggers that cause allergenic rhinitis as well as asthma and other illnesses.

The American College of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology (ACAAI) has suggested that 50 % of ALL ILLNESSES are caused by, or aggravated by, poor indoor air quality.

The U.S. EPA states that “dust” is the worst offender amongst indoor pollutants.

House dust contains a mixture of approximately 28 allergenic components. Typically, dust mite allergens (DMA’s) account for the majority of the harmful components of dust, more than any other single particulate. These allergens are very light-weight and easily become airborne for up to two hours at a time before settling throughout the entire house. This fact negates the effectiveness of costly mattress and pillow enclosures as the dust and allergens that are not inhaled simply continue to "float about" the indoor air and accumulate on your bedding, as well as everywhere else.

Hire professional mattress cleaning technicians to remove the allergen source(s) at the point of origin. Integrate into your housekeeping practices, the tips offered by the mattress cleaning technicians for reducing allergens. Remove dust “collectors” in your home and using proper HEPA-rated vacuums to clean carpets no less than weekly. These housekeeping practices can lessen your exposure to indoor allergens, thereby reducing possibilities of suffering from allergenic rhinitis, asthma, respiratory and skin diseases and increase your quality of health.

There are basically 3 ways to cope with allergens

1). Avoidance
(the least expensive, upgrade housekeeping habits, removes source of allergens)

2). Pharmacotherapy
(expensive $$$, see doctor, buy medications, continue to live with allergen source, and then repeat all)

3). Immunotherapy
(most expensive $$$$, see doctor many time$, run test$, buy medication$, continue to live with source, and then repeat all)

Obviously, the very best and most cost effective way to cope with indoor allergens is through avoidance and removing the source. Through the avoidance of indoor allergens, allergic reactions caused by allergens should subside and may even disappear forever.
