Reducing Asthma and other allergy symptoms

The inhalation of airborne fungal spores is a long recognised trigger for many allergies including Asthma, Rhinitis and certain forms of dermatitis which can often be misdiagnosed as eczema, particularly in children.  In the autumn many asthma sufferers, as well as those suffering from Rhinitis and other allergy related conditions report a rise in the severity of their symptoms. This is due in large part to the increased levels of mould in the environment and home caused by the relatively damp and warm atmospheric conditions. The spores released by these fungi are released into the air and are inhaled into the airways provoking allergic reactions amongst sufferers. Most sufferers are completely unaware of these allergens or how to control them.
 Whilst we cannot control the prevalence of these allergens in the outside environment, we can take steps to reduce their levels in the home using a variety of methods. Reducing the levels of humidity in the home using air conditioning units and improved ventilation symptoms help, albeit at a relatively high cost and can indeed have other detrimental effects I.E. air conditioning can cause drying out of respiratory tissue making inflammation and chest infections more likely.
Directly controlling the levels of mould within your home can be achieved not only by reducing the levels of humidity in the air but by having an effective cleaning regime, particularly in humid areas such as bathrooms and kitchens. We all know that mould can grow on tiles, in cupboards, behind furniture, on windows etc. But few people are aware of the fact that not all cleaning products can kill the spores and the mould at the same time, which is necessary in order to reduce the chances of it returning or spreading to other quiet corners of your home.
