[quote=Anonymous]It's probably related to the sweltering heat and running the A/C in an enclosed house. It's possible that the symptoms are just a reaction to the abrupt temperature change when coming into the house. Higher humidity also can lead to excessive mold spores and dust mite allergens in the air. Cleaning and vacuuming can help a little, but it's almost impossible to purify the house in this weather. The poor outdoor air quality also means that opening the windows may not do much for indoor air quality. A dehumidifier might help some but they are high maintenance and eat a lot of electricity, especially if you need more than one. My one suggestion is to administer daily allergy medication. Zyrtec or Xyzal were recommended by my doctor and they are both effective.[/quote]
