# Has anyone had problems with sneezes and English Ivy? I bought this…

Has anyone had problems with sneezes and English Ivy?  
I bought this one to absorb mold from my bedroom but I feel that ever since it entered my house I can’t stop sneezing. Also at the same time I put two Boston ferns in the bathroom.  
Would like to know if it’s just a coincidence or if they are actually giving me allergies.  
Thanks in advance! 🍀

I have terrible allergies but I’ve never had a reaction from hedera! I’m sorry that’s happening to u 😞

Oh thanks for letting me know! I’ll hold onto it a bit longer 🙏

I've heard it is possible to be allergic to some plants and not others. But it is usually hives or contact with the skin.

Yes I heard about the rashes but nothing about sneezes. Maybe I’m just going down with a cold and the timing matched perfectly 😅
