A pollen 'bomb' is set to cause misery for allergy sufferers this week.
Elevated pollen counts from the weekend now look set to last for most of the week - with many parts of the UK reporting 'High' or 'Very High' levels.
Hay fever season can be a nightmare for many people, as a runny nose and itchy eyes make enjoying the sunshine incredibly difficult, and can leave you wanting to just hide away indoors.
But according to one mum, there might just be a product out there that can help you - as she claimed they helped give her son "his life back" after he suffered from hay fever symptoms.
The mum praised a pack of hay fever relief wipes that she bought at budget high street retailer Savers, which are said to "remove and trap pollen" from the face and hands.
Savers are currently selling the wipes - which are made by Nuage - online for just 89p, and a description of the product on the website reads: "These incredible hayfever relief wipes from Nuage help trap Pollen and prevent it from reaching the eyes, working miracles to relieve and prevent hay fever symptoms.
"These are the best and most effective option for instant hay fever relief, as they work straight away to relieve symptoms, unlike traditional hay fever medication."
The pack contains 30 wipes, and the product is said to work wonders for those who suffer from dust and pet allergies, as well as pollen-related illnesses.
In a post on the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Facebook page, the mum praised the wipes as she said they were instrumental in helping her son get his "life back" after being knocked down by pollen allergies.
She wrote: "Just a tip for anyone who suffers badly from hay fever. My son has tried everything going but these wipes gave him his life back! The wipes are soaked in peppermint and tea tree oil so really soothe the skin and eyes and trap the pollen."
As well as Savers, Nuage hay fever relief wipes are also available at Sainsbury's, Asda, and The Range for £1, while Amazon stocks a three-pack for £3.49, or a five-pack for £5.49.
Reviewers on Amazon have also praised them, with some describing them as being "amazing" and "refreshing".
One person wrote: "Bought for my dad who suffers from hay fever works really well."
Another said: "Works amazing! Most of my family have really bad hay fever and it works like magic! The wipes have a really nice smell that somehow gets rid of hay fever! Strongly recommend."
However, not everyone was overly impressed by the wipes, with a different user leaving a one-star review and commenting: "Quite soothing but didn't help with my hay fever."
