Spring is finally here, bringing longer days and warmer weather. But for many, it also means sneezing, sniffling, and itching instead of fully enjoying the outdoors. Trees, flowers, and grasses release pollen into the air, triggering congestion, itchy eyes, and sinus pressure. Warmer temperatures also bring out the bugs, making bites and irritation a common nuisance. Rather than letting allergies and insect bites take over, here’s how to stay comfortable and make the most of the season.
Breathe Easier This Allergy Season
Pollen can feel unavoidable in the spring, but a few simple adjustments can make a big difference:
- Time it right by avoiding the outdoors during peak pollen times, which are usually in the morning and on dry, windy days. Late afternoons or just after a rain shower are better times to be outside since pollen levels tend to be lower.
- Keep it out by using air conditioning instead of opening windows, especially on breezy days. If you’ve been outside for a while, changing your clothes when you come back in can help prevent tracking pollen around your home.
- Rinse it away by washing your face and hands after being outdoors to remove pollen from your skin. A quick saline rinse can also help clear allergens from your nasal passages and reduce irritation.
If allergies still have you sneezing, Liddell’s Pollen Distress is designed to help support congestion, sinus pressure, and irritation from seasonal allergies so you can enjoy spring without feeling miserable. If headaches or sinus pressure are slowing you down, Sinus Congestion + Headache offers extra support.
How to Handle Annoying Bug Bites
Nothing takes the fun out of a spring day faster than itchy, swollen bug bites. While many people reach for traditional insect repellents, there are natural ways to help keep bugs at bay.
- Wear light-colored clothing since mosquitoes and other insects are more attracted to dark colors.
- Avoid scented lotions and perfumes, which can draw bugs in. Opt for unscented or naturally scented products instead.
- Try a natural trick like rubbing a bit of lemon or lavender oil on your skin, which can naturally deter mosquitoes without harsh chemicals.
If you do end up with an itchy bite, Liddell’s Insect Bites can help relieve irritation so you’re not stuck scratching all day.
Enjoy Spring Without the Sneezing and Itching
Spring is meant to be enjoyed, not endured. By reducing your exposure to allergens, taking smart precautions, and using natural remedies like Liddell’s homeopathic products, you can spend more time outside without the misery.
