What dirties solar panels in Haines City
Cattle and citrus operation dust
Working ranch and grove land surrounding the city puts down a dry, gritty dust during Florida's dry season that differs from the finer phosphate dust seen closer to Lakeland and Bartow.
US-27 corridor traffic film
US-27 carries heavy through-traffic connecting Central Florida to the Glades region, leaving road film on homes closest to the highway.
Lake Eva pollen and mist
Downtown homes near Lake Eva pick up a light mineral mist most mornings, similar to other Polk lake towns but on a smaller scale.
Lovebug season
Heavy along the US-27 corridor twice a year, requiring a pure-water clean rather than a rinse.
