Tranent sits in East Lothian and takes its pollen pattern from the Dumfries, Galloway, Lothian and Borders forecast region. Around 11,900 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 late April. Grass counts are highest from late June. A similar profile to the rest of southern Scotland with a tree peak slightly later than England.

The pollen season in Tranent runs from March to October. The worst months are typically May, July and August.
