On the 8th, a fire broke out at a styrofoam processing plant in Hebei Province, China.
There was no human injury, but the styrofoam was burned with fire, making it difficult to extinguish the plant.
Pollen was a flower root.
The styrofoam around the house caught fire while trying to burn away the accumulated pollen to prevent it from flying into the house.

In March of last year, a man burned the pollen on the floor to get rid of it.
A fire spread from other pollen in an instant and the parked car was burned down.
Earlier in May 2017, all 90 buses were burned in Beijing.
It was also caused by pollen, which led to a large fire when the pollen was inadvertently lit while smoking.
The man who set the fire was sentenced to five years in prison for a true story.
Chinese fire authorities cautioned that pollen contains oil, which makes it easy to catch fire and spreads very quickly.
[Fire Protection Agency: Do not throw away cigarette butts anywhere, and watch out for children.
Pollen should not be lit.]
China has planted poplars and willows on a large scale for the purpose of reducing air pollution and greening, and pollen grows from April to May every year.
In particular, this year's temperature is higher than usual and there is less rainfall, so pollen warnings have been issued early in Beijing and elsewhere.
