Tips For Keeping Your Apartment Allergen Free

The late spring and early summer months are both wonderful and brutal. There’s so many fun things to do now that the snow is gone and the days are getting longer - but the side effects of allergies can easily get in the way of anyone’s enjoyment.

The allergens in apartments can actually be more troublesome than the ones outdoors. We won’t pretend that making an apartment totally allergen free is a realistic dream, but using a few tricks will definitely make a huge difference and will make any apartment a far more enjoyable place to be for those that deal with allergies.

What tricks do we recommend? These, as suggested by apartmentguide.com:
  • Dust your apartment - and do it a certain way to ensure that you don’t kick up more dust in your place. Apartmentguide.com writes that you need to “Use a wet or treated cloth that attracts dust, minimize dust-catching clutter and clean dusty surfaces, such as ceiling fan blades, regularly so that dust doesn’t have a chance to accumulate.”
  • Use a vacuum that has a HEPA filter.
  • Go green and use environmentally friendly cleaning products that have fewer harsh chemicals.
  • If you have a pet, make some parts of your apartment pet free (or vacuum even more often).
