Hay fever and allergies

The continuing strong winds are blowing pollen and dust, yes, it is the "hay fever" season. Not much hay here though, but many things that irritate the nasal passages and bring on the runny nose and sneezing, and at times sore eyes too. I also suffer from orange blossom and mimosa earlier in the year.
So apart from staying inside with the windows closed, or going to sea, what can be done.
Try using the local honey as it can build some resistance (better to start before the probem comes of course) and put vaseline around the nostrils. It will catch much of the pollen and stop it entering the nostrils.
Traffic pollution is not a problem here on our quiet coast, but in towns and cities try to avoid the polluting emissions from traffic if possible.
A swim also helps to clear the systems.
