Mite alarm for the heating season: What's behind it?

Citizen scientists have already reported almost 2,500 ragweed occurrences in Austria for the year 2025. We depend on every entry to make a difference. Please support the project! The reports will be forwarded collectively to the provincial governments.

Last autumn, we conducted a survey for adult men and women with an allergy to grass pollen. The aim of the survey was to ask you, as an allergy sufferer, what relief from your allergy symptoms (such as watery/itchy/reddened eyes, blocked/runny nose or sneezing) you would like from allergy therapy with a long-lasting effect.

Ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia) is currently sprouting in fields and along roadsides. This plant, which is also known colloquially as ragweed, is a neophyte. This means that it only arrived in Europe after the discovery of America by Columbus. Unfortunately for many allergy sufferers, ragweed pollen is highly allergenic. Even less than 5 pollen grains per cubic metre of air can cause symptoms in sensitised allergy sufferers.

This interview is all about dealing with pollen allergies. The conversation sheds light on current developments in pollen measurement, treatment options and digital support for sufferers.

Safe ventilation during the pollen season: The Respilon® Window Membrane nanofibre protective grille blocks out pollen, mould and fine dust. This keeps the room air fresh and free from pollen and polluted air.
