Wet clothes are a magnet for pollen and other allergens. Avoid hanging clothes outside to dry if the pollen count is high as it defeats the purpose of washing them. Use a machine dryer to dry clothes instead or at least hang them indoors to dry as they are less likely to attract pollen. Also remember to set the washing machine to one hundred and thirty degrees Fahrenheit on a hot water cycle to kill dust mites, pollutants, and their eggs.
