The season of poplar fluff will soon begin in Krasnoyarsk, which causes discomfort to many: it disrupts the operation of air conditioners and ventilation systems, flies everywhere and carries allergens on its fibers – pollen and street dust.

In order to survive the June “snowfall” without harm to your health, Rospotrebnadzor experts recommend limiting contact with potential allergens as much as possible. So, on a dry, hot and windy day, when there is the most fluff in the air, it is better to stay at home. It is advisable to go for a walk after the rain. In clear weather, protection can be used withsunglasses and medical mask. Returning from the street, you need to wash yourself thoroughly, rinse your nose, take a shower and change clothes.
It is also recommended to change and wash bed linen more often, regularly do wet cleaning at home and at work, wipe office equipment (under the influence of static, it attracts fluff like a magnet), open windows less often, or hang a small mosquito net or damp gauze on them.
“If, during the period when poplar fluff appears, your nose is stuffy and you sneeze, but there is no fever, these are the main signs of an allergy or hay fever – a reaction to pollen. Do not self-medicate, be sure to consult a doctor,” Rospotrebnadzor urged.
