Thankfully, using your smartphone, tablet, or computer, you can monitor the pollen count in your area and be better prepared.<\/p>\n<p>People with seasonal allergies are most affected at specific times of the year. Spring is an especially rough time, as this is when plants become active again, releasing a lot of plant matter into the air. Pollen is one of the biggest culprits, and there are a number of ways to monitor pollen levels.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> <strong><em>How to Check Your Local Air Quality Index on Android<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Is_a_%E2%80%9CPollen_Count%E2%80%9D_and_How_Is_It_Calculated\"><\/span>What Is a \u201cPollen Count,\u201d and How Is It Calculated?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cPollen Level\u201d and \u201cPollen Count\u201d are the terms that we typically use to describe the amount of pollen in the air. You might be wondering how this is measured and how accurate it is, so let\u2019s take a quick look at that.<\/p>\n<p>One way that the amount of pollen in the air can be measured is with a device called a \u201crotorod sampler.\u201d It\u2019s a device equipped with rods that are coated in a sticky substance. The rods spin around and collect pollen for a period of time and then they are inspected for pollen.<\/p>\n<p>The pollen count is then converted into units, such as \u201cgrains per cubic meter of air,\u201d and then a simple \u201chigh,\u201d \u201cmedium,\u201d or \u201clow\u201d rating is given. Since these are hyper-local devices, the levels might not always be accurate for where you are.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> <strong><em>How to Check Your Local Air Quality Index on iPhone or iPad<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Check_the_Pollen_Count\"><\/span>How to Check the Pollen Count<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Weather services commonly track pollen levels along with the climate.
