Spring may be beautiful, but for allergy sufferers, it also brings sneezing fits, itchy eyes, and endless tissue boxes. As pollen levels rise and allergens float through open windows, your home can quickly become a hot spot for discomfort. But here’s the good news: a clean, well-maintained home can significantly reduce allergy symptoms and help you breathe easier all season long.
At Help at Home with Pam, we know firsthand how powerful a deep clean can be—especially during allergy season. Here’s how our cleaning strategies can transform your space into a sneeze-free sanctuary.
1. Dust: The Sneaky Allergen Hiding in Plain Sight
Dust mites are a major indoor allergen, and they love to settle in places like baseboards, shelves, ceiling fans, and window blinds. Regular dusting with microfiber cloths (not feather dusters, which just spread the dust around) helps trap particles and remove them from your home.
Our Tip: Don’t forget overlooked spots like doorframes, lamp shades, and air vents—our team never misses them.
2. Floors Matter More Than You Think
Carpets and rugs trap pollen, pet dander, and other allergens. Vacuuming with a HEPA-filter vacuum helps prevent these particles from recirculating in your air. Hard floors should be vacuumed and mopped regularly to eliminate buildup.
Our Service: We suggest getting our favorite vacuum with HEPA filters and always move light furniture when needed to get every corner.
3. Breathe Easier with Clean Air Vents & Filters
If your home uses central air or heat, dust and allergens can circulate every time it turns on. Cleaning air vents, replacing filters, and wiping down ceiling fan blades keeps the air cleaner and your system running more efficiently.
Bonus: Ask us about light vent dusting or filter reminders as part of your recurring cleaning service.
4. Pet Dander Doesn’t Have to Be a Problem
Love your pets but hate the allergies? Regular grooming and vacuuming help, but so does frequent cleaning of upholstery, pet beds, and under furniture—where fur tends to gather.
Did You Know? Our team gives extra attention to pet-frequented areas to help keep your furry friends from being allergic triggers.
5. Fresh Bedrooms, Better Sleep
You spend a third of your life in your bedroom—make sure it’s not triggering your allergies. Regularly changing and washing bedding, vacuuming under the bed, and wiping down nightstands can help reduce symptoms and improve sleep.
Pro Tip: We recommend washing sheets weekly in hot water and using allergen-proof covers for pillows and mattresses.
