Your wheels can make you wheeze. Car air vents are allergen magnets. And research shows that even people who don't own pets have cat and dog dander in their cars - it sticks to our clothing. How to quell auto-induced allergies:
- Keep it dry. Moisture collects in the air-conditioning unit, which could lead to mould. Turn the air conditioner off a few minutes befor eyou stop the car, leaving the fan on, vents open, to dry it out.
- Keep in clean. The biggest irritants are dust and pollen. The solution: vacuum and wipe the inside of your car weekly.
- Keep it sealed. Roll up windows and set the vent to "recirculate" at peak allergy times - morning and night.
