We've been longing for the hot weather to arrive. And while this weekend definitely delivered, so too did the pollen count!
For hay fever sufferers it is the start of streaming eyes, constant sneezing and a blocked nose. Great.
But now it seems that hay fever sufferers have discovered a new cure, as reported in our sister title Cornwall Live - and you've probably got some tucked away in your bathroom cupboard.
Sneezy sufferers have taken to Twitter to declare Vaseline as this year's ultimate weapon against hay fever.
How it works
All you need to do is apply a layer of Vaseline around the insides of your nostrils as high as possible.
Yes, it might look - and even feel - a little weird, but if it stops the runny nose and constant sneezing, we'll give it a try.
The fans
Twitter users have been vocal in their delight at this simple remedy.
The verdict
Let's face it, as far as remedies go, it's a lot less painful than rubbing stinging nettles on yourself.
Although gin as a hay fever cure, is still our favourite of all!
