Never heard of it before until I talked to a guy down in Austin today. According to him Texas gets hit hard with it and he should know, he owns a large air purifier company. From what I've read about cedar fever its some nasty stuff, anyone suffer from it? http://pollen.utulsa.edu/cedar.html

Jim, what your friend calls cedar is really a close relative called juniper. It is common all over Texas but particularly concentrated in central Texas. It actually puffs out clouds of pollen in the fall and winter. Many people are allergic to "cedar" or juniper pollen and call the malady "cedar fever". Tom Sterling

I don't but the wife does and it's pretty bad this time of year. I have seen the cedar's pollinating and that's a neat sight if you've seen it.

The only problem I have with them Zep is that once you have one, soon you'll have 100!
