What’s Causing My Child’s Allergies? Utah Allergy Season Explained

Article at a Glance

  • Allergy season often begins in February with Juniper and Cedar trees, long before the traditional spring bloom.
  • Major Utah allergens include a wide range of trees like Cottonwood, Box Elder, and Ash, as well as summer grasses and fall Sagebrush or Ragweed.
  • Our local inversions can trap particulates that irritate a child’s airway, making their allergic reactions feel significantly more severe.
  • Monitoring hourly levels via the Pollen Wise app and starting maintenance medications two weeks before a child’s known trigger season are the most effective ways to manage symptoms.
