Dr Lorenz of Carbondale explains allergy basics for Southern Illinois residents. Inherited tendency to allergies is high, with 70 percent family predisposition. Allergies persist lifelong, may mellow with age, and can lead to new sensitivities as the body tolerates existing ones.
Lorenz lists major tree grasses and ragweed as key allergens in the area, naming maple, elm, oak, birch and others among trees, blue and June grasses among grasses, and ragweed among weeds. Pollen seasons peak in April for trees, June for grasses, and mid autumn for ragweed, with dispersion peaking in cool morning hours and rain briefly cleansing air. Treatments range from avoidance and drugs to immunotherapy injections addressing underlying immune response.
Cooperative Extension Service of Urbana outlines maintenance for outdoor furniture including wrought iron redwood wicker and aluminum.
