    Default Get rid of dust mites

    Become a member to remove this ad.
    I had allergy from dust mites, I used several products to reduce dust mites, but none of product gave me desired results. Due to this allergy problem I visited doctor many times and he suggested me several solutions, but all was in vain. There was no improvement in my body after using the suggestions given by doctor. I also asked with my collages and relatives that ever they have any product that may be beneficial for me. One day I was searching on the internet that how dusts mites can be eliminated in that section I found a spray. Initially, I was afraid about using that product then; I found reviews of that product. After that, I decided to use that spray and I used that you can't believe, but its result was awesome, I never saw such product. I think it will be beneficial for all people who are still searching the methods to eliminate dust mites.

    Welcome to the Forum, you are free to "mention" the product however links are not allowed on this Forum.

    It's difficult to sometimes determine dust mites to fleas...

    The important thing to ensure you do is wash everything in boiling hot water and constantly vacum, including all pets bedding and toys...

    I have actually heard if you have dust mites, nothing you can do to the matress, other than throwing it out, they don't die but if you believe there is a product that you can spray on a matress that won't harm you, whilst you sleep of toxins and fumes then we'd like to hear about it...

    You can't get rid of dust mites. They not visible to the eye, feed on dander and are virtually everywhere, especially in enclosed spaces. You are most likely sensitive to the remains of the mites when they die, in other words you are sensitive to dust. Frequent use of a vacuum with a EPA approved HEPA filter, regularly laundering bedding, encasing your mattress in a special cover and wiping that regularly should help. Cleaning frequently with a damp cloth rather than a dry one to "dust", regularly wash your window screens, wipe blinds with a damp cloth and do not a lot of knick knacks, stuff with frills or ruffles or anything that will harbor dust, will help.

    No cloth covered furniture, leather or vinyl is better, no carpeting either...hardwood floors, tile or even linoleum with throw rugs that can be laundered are better. No pillows on the sofa or any chair, no draperies or other fabric window treatments, no valances, etc.

    Encase all sleeping pillows in "allergen free" or "dustmite preventive" pillow covers/cases. Same for the mattress...cover it in a cover that dust mites cannot get through...they are labled as such and generally woven much more tightly than regular sheets. They are quite expensive too.

    As long as you shed the outer layer of your skin and it has some place to fall nd get caught (carpet, cushions, pillows, fabric, etc.) you're going to have dust mites. dust mites eat skin cells.

    You are allergic to either dust mite feces or the dead dust mites themselves.
