Thoroughly clean places where molds flourish, like drain pans under your refrigerator, old flowerpots and shower curtains. |

Encase box springs, mattresses and pillows in allergy-proof covers to keep dust – and dust mites – away. |
|
|
Clean and service air conditioning units to remove pollen and other allergens trapped during prior use. |
|
|
Always wash bedding in hot water (at least 130 F) to kill dust mites and launder every one to two weeks. |
|
|
Dust regularly. Wear a mask if you are allergic to dust and replace dusting cloths often to prevent dust transfer from one piece of furniture to the next. |

|
Stay away from dustwands, brooms and feather dusters. These tools merely move dirt and dust around. Vacuum all surfaces thoroughly, preferably with a HEPA-filter vacuum, catching dust on baseboards, high ledges, upholstery and ceiling fans. |

Restrict your pets' movement to as few rooms as possible, especially with regards to bedrooms. Frequently damp-wipe feeding areas and launder bedding often. |
