I’m allergic to yardwork, too. Before I mow, I have to take some antihistamines and wear a pollen mask. Hours after the mowing, I can go back outside and relax.
My old neighbor’s lawn guy always worked covered up from head to toe. Hat, mask, gloves, the works! I couldn’t help wondering if he was in the right business!
10-15 years ago, I went to an allergist for a problem totally unrelated to pollen (something itchy in my skin). He stuck me with every fork in his box and I reacted to none of them. Nevertheless, whenever I do yardwork, whether I’m using a riding mower, a self-propelled walk-behind, or a weed whacker, invariably my nose starts running. Happens to me in other environments that don’t involve grass or growing things. Something about exertion makes my nose run. I think I’m allergic to work, too.

Aww have a heart Olivia. A lot of people are allergic to nature. Pollen and stuff.
