Fall Is Here and So Is Ragweed Allergy Season

Ragweed is the most common weeds and is number one cause of fall hay fever symptoms in the United States, and really flourishes in the Midwestern part of the country. It is usually found in areas such as fields and along roadside in rural areas, but think it is only found in the country, ragweed also grow in vacant lots in urban areas, or get blown in from other areas. Ragweed pollen can travel as far as 400 miles via the winds, so you may be affected by ragweed even though it does not grow nearby.
