It's hard to prepare for allergy season when there's still snow falling. Another 2 inches of snow fell in my neck of the woods today but believe or not, I'm gearing up for allergy season.

Now is the time to prepare before the pollen goes wild in the spring. Start by reducing your overall allergen-load by starting your spring cleaning earlier. Tackle those areas where allergens accumulate. I began by shampooing my carpeting this week. You wouldn't believe the amount of grime that had built up, especially with all the snowy, muddy feet tracking in this winter.

Find out exactly what to do to get ready for allergy season by reading the latest article from the Allergies and Colds site at BellaOnline.com.
