"Pollen filters" are fitted in car heating systems. 2 questions:-

1 Do they actually do what they say, catch the pollen?

2) Can you brush/shake/back-blow such a filter to get the pollen out
*still alive* and able to fertilise?

1. Possibly
2. how would you know what pollen you had? It could be anything and
everything.

Under a microscope you can tell them apart; there are photos on the
web to help you with this. Pollen caught by filtration WILL be
anything, but pollen will only fertilise the same species.

Good luck with identifying pollen, it all looks the same to to me.
