Perth sits in Perth and Kinross and takes its pollen pattern from the Tayside, Central and Fife forecast region. Around 47,400 people live here. Hay fever sufferers should track all three pollen types from March through August.
Tree pollen here is dominated by birch, oak and alder, with grass led by ryegrass and weeds by nettle.
Tree pollen typically peaks in late April. Grass counts are highest from late June. Inland stretches can register higher counts than the coastal towns on dry days.
