Dundonald sits in Lisburn and Castlereagh and takes its pollen pattern from the Northern Ireland forecast region. Around 14,000 people live here. Hay fever sufferers should track all three pollen types from March through August.
Tree pollen here is dominated by birch, alder and oak, with grass led by ryegrass and cocksfoot and weeds by nettle.
Tree pollen typically peaks in April. Grass counts are highest from June. Birch and alder are the headline tree triggers; the grass season is shorter than in southern England.
