Texas A&M Forest Service offered the following tips to help Texans get through the cedar fever season.
Treat cedar fever by taking allergy medications and antihistamines, but consult your physician or health care professional before taking new medications.
Anticipate the pollen by tuning in to the local news station, many of which will give the pollen count and can predict when it will be a particularly pollen-heavy day.
On pollen-heavy days, keep windows and doors closed and limit the time spent outdoors.
When possible, install higher MERV-rated air filters in home and auto HVAC systems and invest in home air purifiers.
