Persistently low pollen count in Tyrol!
Mugwort pollen. The mugwort pollen season is coming to an end. Only individual grains of mugwort pollen are still being recorded.
Grass pollen. The grass pollen season is also slowly coming to an end. The pollen load from grasses remains low at all altitudes. Some plantain pollen grains are still being recorded, which can increase the allergenic load for people who are sensitive to grass pollen.
Ragweed/Ambrosia in Tyrol. In addition to several smaller hotspots, a significant area of ragweed has been identified between Rietz and Haiming. In order to obtain precise information about the ragweed pollen in this region, we have again set up a pollen trap in Mötz this year. Ragweed has already started to bloom and low concentrations are currently being measured.
Other types of pollen. We are also registering stinging nettle pollen, which is of minor allergological importance.
Fungal spores. The concentration of fungal spores is generally moderate and can trigger allergic reactions in some people. Please note that the concentration of spores usually increases during sunny periods after rainfall.

Ragweed is blooming!
If you would like to help us and other allergy sufferers to reduce the burden during this year's season, you can report ragweed populations in your area via the Ragweed Finder app or online at ragweedfinder.at !
