1. Close the Windows

Keep your windows closed to help keep allergens on the outside. If it gets warm, use an air-conditioner.

2. Hot Wash, Hot Dry

Once a week, wash bedding in hot water and dry it in a hot dryer.

3. Filter Your Air

Consider using a HEPA (high-efficiency particulate air) filter wherever you spend a lot of time, especially your bedroom.

4. Keep Pets Off the Bed

Keep your pets out of your bedroom and especially off your bed to help reduce their allergic effects.
