Tip:  If you’re an allergy sufferer, wash that pollen out of your hair

Try to refrain from going outdoors between ten ... [and] two, when the pollen coun s are highest ... .

If you do have to go outdoors, when you come back inside your home, make sure you change your clothes and remove your shoes at the door so you don’t bring those pollen spores inside your home.

Wash your hair if possible. Your hair can act like a ‘mop’ and just soak up those pollen spores ... so you don’t want to go to sleep and your hair has trapped all of this pollen. Now it’s all on your pillow and sheets, so ... it’s like you’re rolling around in the main thing that’s causing your symptoms.
