Local Environmental Conditions
Open grassland and woodland share the area around this part of Des Moines Township, plus some farmland. Along running water nearby, trees, shrubs and reeds grow in the damper ground and add their own pollen. Locally, the woodland makes trees an important source; open grassland and farmland add grass and weed pollen.
Tree pollen comes first, peaking in mid-spring. Then come the grasses, strongest in late spring and fading by early fall. Weeds on open ground add a smaller late peak from early summer into early fall. In warm, humid weather through summer, mold spores add to the mix, especially after rain. By late fall, as temperatures fall to around freezing, pollen levels are low again.
