Fall Pollen Allergies
Weed pollen is the main cause of hay fever symptoms in the late summer and early fall. Depending on the area of North America, these weeds include ragweed, sagebrush, pigweed, tumbleweed (Russian thistle) and cocklebur. Checking local pollen counts can be helpful in determining when and what types of weeds are pollinating, and certain avoidance measures can be followed to minimize pollen exposure and limit allergy symptoms.

Ragweed Allergy
Ragweed pollen is spread through the air, and is too small to be seen with the naked eye. The pollen is highest during the morning hours, on windy days, or shortly after a rainstorm when the plant is drying out. Ragweed grows just about anywhere, especially in fields, along the sides of highways, and in vacant lots. This weed is especially common in the Midwestern states and along the East Coast of the United States, but can be found in many other parts of the world, including Europe and Hawaii.
