What is an allergy to household allergens?

Household allergens are substances that typically cause allergic reactions and are commonly found in homes and apartments. These include:

• House dust

• Dust mites

• Pet hair and dander

• Mold fungi

• Cockroach droppings

People with a sensitive immune system may develop various allergic conditions. These are most often expressed as:

• Nasal congestion, sneezing, coughing

• Itchy and watery eyes

• Sometimes skin inflammation (dermatitis)

Important: Unlike other allergens, sensitivity to household allergens persists throughout the year and gradually increases. This negatively affects a person's health.
