If you have been sneezing and wheezing lately, you can thank ragweed for the onslaught of seasonal allergy symptoms.
It has been a bumper year for the pesky plant, according to Dawn Jurgens, Director of Operations at Aerobiology Research Laboratories in Ottawa.
“Ragweed has been really bad this year, and pretty much everywhere that ragweed occurs — it occurs in Manitoba, Ontario and Quebec, mostly — it’s been really high levels this year,” Jurgens said.
