What causes allergies?

What kind of household items can affect the occurrence of allergies?

First of all, an allergy home can be caused by secretions of special glands of domestic animals. It is for this reason that allergies should not contain pets, and if the animals still exist in the apartment, try to wash them more often, change their bedding, do not allow to walk around in all rooms, wash with chlorine, places of frequent pets stay, etc. .

Houseplants and house allergies are two concepts that are very close to each other. Indoor plants, especially flowering, are capable of provoking the appearance of an allergy attack in adults and children. The most dangerous are the century-old (aloe), dracaena, indoor maple, primula, hydrangea. It is desirable not to keep these plants in the house. Other representatives of the flora are recommended at least once a week to wipe with a damp cloth, trying not to break the stems and leaves. If the house has children, you need to ensure that the child does not tear off the leaves and flowers of plants and do not bite them.

Not only indoor flowers, but also various top dressings, which often fertilize the soil in pots, can cause allergies to the home for any components from its composition. It is best to give preference to those fertilizers that require dissolution in water, and then into the soil - this will allow the mixture to penetrate more quickly into the soil and evaporate less.

Also, you should not fight plant pests in the apartment, because to eliminate parasites often used various chemicals that easily provoke the appearance of an allergic attack.

The smell of a mold can easily become an allergen. Fungus often appears in places of moisture accumulation, in books, in a wardrobe. Evaporating, the fungus saturates the air in the room with its spores, which often cause the allergy of the home. To eliminate the fungus, it is necessary to ventilate the room as often as possible, do not put furniture close to the walls, do not curtain the windows from sunlight in the daytime, wipe the damp places with a solution of water and vinegar or water and baking soda once a week.

A person, an allergy, domestic dust are three inseparable, closely related factors, very common in an allergic environment. Even the cleanest mistress is not able to create in her house such an order that it does not present at least a small part of the dust. Soft toys, bedspreads, carpets, curtains, furniture, books, clothes, walls and ceilings - household dust is contained on these items and not only on them. In order to get rid of this "enemy" of allergy sufferers, it is necessary to do wet cleaning every day, vacuuming carpets and carpets, shaking out soft toys, knocking out rugs, vacuuming walls and ceilings, washing or vacuuming curtains and curtains, wiping furniture and books . In winter, it is advisable to take carpets and other items on the street, to the balcony and let them lie there for a while - this will help to destroy parasites that inhabit household items and cause home allergy.
