    If Summer Means Living In Fear Of Bugs And Allergies, These 24 Target Products Are For You

    Gotta get the creepy crawlies before they take over.

    1. A Zevo flying insect trap because there's nothing more annoying than tiny little bugs flying around you when you're trying to eat a Hot Pocket.

    2. A saline spray that, if you're like me, will become an absolute godsend come allergy season. On days where your nose feels so dry it could burst into flames, spray this mist inside to get your nostrils moisturized in no time.

    5. A large room HEPA Clorox air purifier so you can remove particle matter, bacteria, mold, and other pollutants from the air for an actual easy, breezy day. It will indicate a change in the air quality, which one reviewer noted saved their apartment from what could've been a major disaster.

    6. And while we're ridding our home of flying bugs, a max Zevo flying trap starter kit because one fruit fly can lay up to 500 eggs, and that Snapple fact alone will keep you up at night. This trap sits on the counter and is dual-sided to catch twice the amount of bugs and comes with a longer cord so you can put it in more places.

    7. Peppermint essential oil you can sprinkle on cotton balls to wipe down your belongings or add to a water bottle to spray your perimeter for an all-natural spider repellent.

    10. A faucet extender so your mini can wash the grass and dirt off of their hands after playing outside. There's nothing worse than rubbing your eye and suffering for the rest of the day. Wait, yes there is — having your mini suffer is way way worse.

    11. A door draft stopper to ensure no creepy crawlies can slide their way inside your home to get a little shade.

    13. A hypoallergenic sunscreen with SPF 100, a no-nonsense straight formula that won't add any extra irritation to your skin during allergy season. It's great for both adults and kids three years old and up!

    14. Some Command mop and broom grippers because during this season, you need your brooms and mops nearby to keep things as dust-free as possible.

    15. A peppermint and eucalyptus shower steamer that'll add aromatherapy goodness to your routine shower and open your sinuses and lungs to reduce the symptoms of spring allergies.

    16. A super effective pet hair and lint remover to keep your furry friend's rapidly shedding winter coat off the furniture. Pollen is enough to fight, but pet dander, too? Time to bring in reinforcements (aka this double-sided tool).

    17. A six-pack of Terro liquid ant baits in case you can't leave a single crumb on the counter without these tiny workers finding a way inside to swarm your home. These traps will help you nip that problem in the bud. Set the trap near your first sight of them and wave goodbye.

    18. A pack of bug bite relief patches infused with aloe and witch hazel to provide on-site relief so getting bitten by an annoying bug doesn't have to ruin your day.

    19. A cold brew coffee maker because getting up and out can be tough (read: impossible) on days when your allergy symptoms are at an all-time high. This cold brew maker will work overnight to make sure your coffee is ready for you because it knows you had a rough night. Never be without your beloved cup of joe again.

    20. A pack of allergy supplements for Sparky because seasonal allergies get everyone down, including your favorite canine companion. These bacon-flavored bites support their immune system, skin, and gut health, too. 🐶

    21. A non-insulated water bottle because cold liquids can make allergies worse by thickening the mucus. But, when you're dehydrated, your body produces more histamine (the chemical that causes allergy symptoms). This pretty pastel purple (say that five times fast) water bottle will help you stay hydrated and decrease some of those symptoms.

    22. A hanging bug zapper so you can slide your porch door open without worrying about a million tiny flys sneaking in the holes of your screen door. This zapper patrols up to 625 square feet, attracts the little buggers, and zaps them so you don't have to. And before you ask, it has a removable tray to discard the bugs and it's ready to use again.

    23. An itch-relief pen that must possess some sort of Stark technology since it functions as a first-aid kit in a pen. If you're ready to brave the elements and go for a hike or just enjoy some outdoor activities, having this nearby is a must. It contains antiseptic that offers temporary relief from bug bites and stings from mosquitoes, bees, wasps, ticks, hornets, ants, chiggers, and ~shutter to think~ more bugs that might be lurking about waiting to prance on your tasty flesh. 😨

    24. A personal steam inhaler — I recently crowned The Best Thing Ever. This personal steamer provides you INSTANT relief from angry sinuses during an allergy flare-up. You don't need vapor pads or anything extra. The steam alone opens the nasal passages and reduces the congestion. It is the BEST!
