Spring is a tough time for people, but as it turns out, also for fans of cleanliness and tidying up. Every year in May, yellow sediment appears on sidewalks and on windows and cars. What is this? It turns out that one tree is to blame for everything.
What is the yellow dust on cars made of? “The phenomenon at this time is most natural”
Yellow dust is the result of pollination of coniferous trees, or more precisely, common pollen. It produces dust from May to mid-June, but in May it does it most intensively, hence the accumulation of coating on many surfaces. If we are dealing with warm days and strong gusts of wind, dusting is even more abundant and although it is not harmful to health, In many people, it increases allergic reactions, causing runny nose, sneezing and eye irritation.

– The pine is wind-pollinated, so the phenomenon at this time is most natural. (…) The more concrete surfaces, the greater the migration of pollen, which is very dirty. We have to wait it out. That is why it is important to introduce greenery and limit mowing, so that pollen can naturally settle on them – explained Marek Szempliński from the City Greenery Board in Wrocław in an interview with the portal.
How to wash off yellow dust? This home remedy is foolproof. You will quickly remove the sediment
Yellow dust is not difficult to remove, but it is better not to do it with a wet cloth, because it will only smear it and make it even more difficult to get rid of it. It is best to use a mixture of water and dishwashing liquid, which will prevent pollen from flying into the air. If we are dealing with dried dust, we can add a little vinegar to the solution and the dirt should disappear quickly.
