My husband he’s allergic to everything! If that wasn’t bad enough he also has allergies. In about a month his eyes will start getting swollen and the countless sneezes will begin. He gets so miserable with his allergies that he makes the rest of us miserable along with him. Years later I’ve learned that I can make all of our lives easier by just doing a few simple things around our home to cut down on the dust and dander:
- throw pillows in dryer for 20 minutes (do the same for stuffed animals)
- dust ceiling fans
- wash curtains and other linens that aren’t regularly changed
- move furniture and vacuum underneath
- change filters (furnace, fridge, etc)
Believe it or not the last one is really important!! It’s recommended that you change your filters every three months. My hubby strongly believes he can feel a difference if they aren’t changed in a timely manner. We invested in a case of filters and change them regularly in both our furnace in the basement and the air handler in the attic.
