Desert Dust

If you live in a desert climate, you already know that dust and pollen are not seasonal nuisances; they are a year round reality. Dry soil, sparse native vegetation, and wide open lots mean that every gust of wind can send fine particles swirling through your neighborhood and straight into your home. Add in the blooming cycles of desert trees and shrubs, and you have a recipe for itchy eyes, scratchy throats, and a layer of grit on every windowsill.
