Re: Allergic to hay!

Both me and my mum are also allergic to hay, we just try to work round it.

We've found some hay worse than others - even different types of timothy. Try a different brand maybe, I find Oxbow doesn't bother me so much as others I have tried.

I also keep the hay covered - I built a hay box from left over coroplast. Build it like the cage base, only smaller with taller sides, cut a hole in the front, then make a lid. My pigs get their hay in a hay rack in there so it doesn't fly around everywhere.

You could also look into air purifiers - they are supposed to remove allergens etc from the air.
