Minimizing exposure to crested wheatgrass allergens during lawn care requires a combination of practical measures and smart planning.
One way to reduce contact with allergens is to wear protective clothing while mowing or gardening. A long-sleeved shirt, long pants, gloves, sunglasses and even a mask or a bandanna can help keep allergens off your skin and out of your eyes and lungs. Speaking of mowing, consider doing it later in the day when the pollen count tends to be lower. Pollen counts typically peak in the early morning hours, so try to schedule your outdoor tasks accordingly.
In addition, maintaining the right grass height can also reduce allergen exposure. Crested wheatgrass needs to be cut regularly to prevent it from blooming. The flowering stage is when it releases its pollen, which is the major allergen. Keep your grass about three inches tall to reduce the number of pollen-producing flowers.
Using the right tools can also aid in minimizing exposure. A lawn mower with a grass catcher can contain most of the grass clippings, thus reducing the amount of pollen that ends up airborne.
Avoiding direct handling of the crested wheatgrass after mowing is another useful practice. Bagging and disposing of the grass cuttings can limit your exposure to the allergens.
Finally, consider taking an antihistamine before performing lawn care duties. These medications can block the body's response to allergens and help prevent allergic symptoms. Just be aware of any potential side effects like sleepiness.
Implementing these practices should play a key role in minimizing exposure to allergens while managing your lawn. Please consult with a medical professional for any specific concerns or issues you may have.
