10 Ways To Allergy Proof Your Home

Doorways

The entrance to the outside is one place allergy sufferers should pay attention to as well. The family should get into the habit of taking shoes off before entering to avoid tracking allergens all over the house, and guests should be asked to do the same. A doormat placed on the outside and inside of the doorway will prevent mud, dirt, and other messes stepped on from entering the house. Remember they do need replacing over time, as they will eventually become inhibited with allergens. It can help to mark down the last time you bought a new one and jot down when your next one should be purchased.
