Preparing your home for allergy season requires a strategic approach to cleaning and maintaining key areas where allergens tend to accumulate, such as carpets, curtains, and bedding.

Start with your carpets, as they can trap dust and allergens. Vacuum them thoroughly at least twice a week, and consider using a steam cleaner or hiring a professional for a deep clean. For area rugs, take them outside to shake them out or wash them according to their care instructions. Next, focus on curtains.

Regularly wash them based on their care labels. If washing isn’t feasible, use a vacuum with a brush attachment to remove dust effectively. Switching to lighter, washable curtains can also make maintenance easier and reduce allergen buildup.

Bedding is another critical area. Wash sheets, pillowcases, and duvet covers weekly in hot water to eliminate dust mites. Ensure everything is completely dry before putting it back on the bed to prevent mold growth. Decluttering your bedroom by removing unnecessary items, such as stuffed animals or decorative pillows, can significantly reduce dust accumulation. In addition to these cleaning tasks, consider using air purifiers in key living areas to improve indoor air quality. Keeping indoor humidity levels between 30-50% helps deter dust mites and mold growth. Regularly checking and replacing HVAC filters will also contribute to a healthier environment.

By following these comprehensive steps, you’ll create a cleaner and more comfortable home, minimizing allergen exposure and alleviating allergy symptoms throughout the season. Regular maintenance and attention to detail will make a noticeable difference in your living space, contributing to overall well-being.
