Prevent hay fever
Take measures to prevent pollen and viruses from being brought into your room from outside.
mask
There are masks made of various materials such as non-woven fabric, cloth, and urethane materials, but one thing that can be said for all materials is that pollen and viruses can enter through the gaps. Be careful not to leave any gaps around the sides of your nose, cheeks, and chin.
In addition, non-woven masks are labeled with numbers that indicate the performance of the mask, such as PFE, VFE, and BFE. If you are concerned about both pollen and viruses, it is best to choose one that has passed the PFE test.
Pollen block spray/adsorption guard
Pollen block spray is also convenient for children who don't like wearing masks to prevent pollen. In addition, many of them are compact in size, making them easy to carry around or keep at work. We also have suction guards that can be applied directly to the nose and aroma sticks to prevent nasal congestion.

When the air in the room is dry, viruses and pollen are more likely to fly up. Keep the humidity in the room between 40 and 60%.
Maintaining a suitable level of humidity prevents viruses and pollen from becoming heavy due to moisture and floating in the air. Also, try installing an air purifier at the entrance to reduce the amount of pollen entering the room.
cleaning goods
When cleaning the room, carefully vacuum the room and wipe the flooring with a rag or wet sheet. Also, before entering your home, use a brush or adhesive roller to remove pollen from your body, clothes, and belongings. It is important to not bring pollen into the room or spread it as much as possible.

When you brush off pollen from your clothes with your hands, you'll notice pollen on your hands. Wash your hands immediately to avoid accidentally rubbing your eyes. Also, be sure to gargle frequently to prevent pollen from entering your body. If possible, it would be even better to wash your face to remove pollen from your face.
