Local Environmental Conditions
This part of Willoughby City Council is heavily wooded, with some built-up land. The damp ground beside a stream or river nearby supports trees such as willow and plane tree, adding to local pollen. Olive stands out as the main allergenic tree nearby. Grasses and weeds such as plantain and pellitory round out the local mix.
Olive leads the season in early spring, as temperatures climb to around 15°C, and tree pollen reaches its peak. Then come the grasses, strongest in mid-spring and fading by mid-fall. Plantain and pellitory flower through much of the warmer half of the year. In warm, humid weather from midsummer into early fall, mold spores add to the mix, especially after rain.
