Pine pollen done?

Merrymeeting · 06-14-2016, 07:41 AM

The one bebfit of the incredible winds of the past few weeks, and the rain last week, is that it appears that most of the pine pollen has been washed/blown away. I usually use Father's Day as the milestone for the end of most of the mess.

What do others see? Safe to start cleaning windows, screens, and patios?

I wiped my porch table just before your post last night and it was heavy. This morning, 12 hours later, there is a light coating of new pollen. We are close, but it is probably going to be a few more days.

Yup. Answered my own question...

Washed my car yesterday. This morning it's covered with a light dusting of yellow. Not as much as last week, but not done yet.

My black Denali shows pine pollen incredibly well. Washed yesterday and 4 hours later we have yellow showing up.
