Mold



Warm temperatures and humidity may be great for plants, but they can play havoc with your allergies if you are sensitized to them. Molds are most prevalent during the summer months, but can be a year-round hazard in warmer zones. In some areas, high mold counts occur at the same time of year as high pollen counts. This can make the spring and fall allergy seasons especially difficult for those who are sensitized to those allergens.

You don't have to go outside to be affected by molds though. Mold can thrive indoors in your heating/cooling system, in the basement, and in the bathroom.
