Start Date: May 12

The beginning of spring means allergy season is in high gear, so I wanted to let you know that LYSOL can now help control indoor allergens to help keep your family healthy year-round.
Allergy flare-ups are often attributed to the allergens outside your front door. However, did you know that the same allergens are found on surfaces inside 75 million homes across America? According to the Center for Disease Control (CDC), some of the most common indoor allergens, include dust mites, mold and household pets.
Some easy ways to reduce allergy suffering in the home include:
- Reduce Pet Dander – Decrease your exposure to pet dander by keeping your pet out of your bedroom, since this is typically the room in which people spend a majority of their time.
- Wrap Things Up – Put fabric covers over common dust mite hideouts such as pillows, mattresses and sofa cushions and wash bedding often.
- Clear the Air – Prevent pollen from entering your home by keeping windows and doors closed during peak allergy season. Air filters are also considered useful for helping clear the air of lingering allergens triggers.
- Wipe Down Surfaces – Be sure to frequently clean hard surfaces to get rid of allergens in your home. Use LYSOL Disinfecting Wipes to remove 90% of pollen particles and dust mite debris, in addition to killing 99.9% of illness-causing bacteria. Also use LYSOL Disinfectant Spray to kill the source of mold allergens on hard, non-porous surfaces.
- Avoid Mold Spores – To help reduce mold: use an air conditioner in humid climates and avoid the use of humidifiers in dry climates. Also, run the bathroom fan or open the window when showering.
- Talk to Your Doctor – It is important to talk to your doctor about whether or not allergy testing, medications, and/or other measures are recommended.
My Thoughts
There are a few products that are stand outs from my childhood. Lysol is definitely one of them. I remember the doorknobs being sprayed if we were sick and touched one and it is a product that I have used throughout my adult life as well. When I was a kid I couldn’t understand why the adults around me always used Lysol, but as a parent I now know. You don’t want germs in your house and it certainly comes in hand during allergy season, when all those nasty flares ups occur. Thanks to Lysol I no longer have to worry about that! Keep your family healthy with Lysol, I do!
I have been given the opportunity to giveaway the Lysol products shown above to one Dirty Shirt reader to help protect your family from germs and allergens. Please see rules below to enter today!

Hiking outside- after the house is clean and the bills are paid. To leave the house and know when you get back everything will be perfect.
