2. The harm of mites

Mites feed on human body fluids (blood, lymph), sebum, skin debris, or other powdery substances.

Mites are everywhere. Studies have found that the number of dust mites and demodex mites on a piece of underwear can exceed 10,000. There are about 450,000 dust mites in 30 grams of dust. 10% of the weight of a pillow that has been used for 8 years is actually mites and their corpses.

There are many types of mites, and the ones that are most harmful to humans indoors are dust mites and Demodex mites. Dust mites are the main culprit of allergic diseases.

Dust mites are one of the strongest allergens known in the world. Therefore, patients with various allergic diseases such as allergic asthma, allergic rhinitis, allergic conjunctivitis, etc. must do a good job of indoor mite removal.

Although dust mites are small, they are much larger than viruses and bacteria, so each dust mite carries a large number of viruses and bacteria. Dust mites can be spread through dust, human clothing and pets. Dust mites love to suck human body fluids (blood, lymph). After biting the human body, dust mites not only cause skin inflammation, but also often spread diseases. Due to the large number of dust mites, some infectious diseases such as hand, foot and mouth disease, toxoplasmosis, influenza, epidemic pneumonia, epidemic encephalitis, hemorrhagic fever, etc. may be spread. The transmission ability of dust mites is far greater than that of pests such as mosquitoes.

Acne, pimples, and rosacea are all caused by mites. The infection rate of Demodex in adults is as high as 97.68%. Demodex mites parasitize in human hair follicles and sebaceous glands, sucking nutrients from the hair follicles, destroying the hair follicle tissue, entering and exiting the pores, bringing in bacteria and causing folliculitis. At the same time, Demodex mites can also secrete a sebaceous alcohol, which stimulates the sebaceous glands to secrete a large amount of oil, clogging the pores and forming acne and pimples. Many people suffer from recurring small red bumps on their chest and back, which are caused by Demodex mites. Six tips to control dust mites and prevent allergies.

Dust mites are the most important source of indoor allergens in dust. Since dust mites are closely related to allergic asthma, allergic rhinitis and atopic dermatitis, dust mite removal is very necessary. Relevant experts point out that when removing mites, beds, carpets, home furnishings and air conditioners are the focus.

3. The following 6 methods can control dust mites

1. Reduce indoor relative humidity.

Keeping relative humidity below 50% is the most common method for controlling levels of mites and their allergens. Studies have shown that using high-performance dehumidifiers and air conditioners indoors to reduce relative humidity and the total amount of mites is both practical and effective.

2. Use packaging sleeve.

Packing mattresses and pillows with special anti-mite materials is an effective way to reduce exposure to dust mites and their allergens. This method is recommended for allergy sufferers and the ideal material would be a comfortable, breathable fabric that is permeable to vapor and blocks the passage of mites and mite allergens.

3. Washing, drying and dry cleaning of bedding.

Washing sheets, pillowcases, blankets, and mattress covers once a week in hot water equal to or higher than 55 degrees Celsius can kill mites and remove most mite allergens. Tumble dryers kill all mites if the temperature is above 55 degrees Celsius for 10 minutes. Washing your hair daily is also a good way to control dust mite allergens.

4. Replacement of carpets, curtains and home decorations.

Carpets, curtains and home furnishing fabrics collect debris and provide an ideal habitat for mites to reproduce. In humid areas, carpeting should be replaced with a hard surface. Window (cloth) curtains or blackout curtains should be replaced with blinds, home decorative fabrics should be replaced with vinyl or leather pads, and furniture can be replaced with wooden furniture.

5. Vacuum the carpet.

Carpets should be vacuumed weekly, and the vacuum cleaner bag should be changed frequently.

6. Frozen soft toys and small items.

Soft toys and small items can be washed after being frozen at -17°C to -20°C for at least 24 hours to remove dead mites and allergens.

Research has found that after a brand new quilt has been used for only one month, the number of mites and bacteria has reached several million. If it is tested again after three months of use, the number of mites and bacteria will increase by 30%! After half a year, it will increase by 50%!

Tip 1: Disinfect your bedding at noon!

Quilts that smell like the sun are healthier. But unfortunately, only 44% of people have the habit of drying their bedding. The ultraviolet rays in the sunlight from 12 noon to 2 pm can effectively kill mites, microorganisms and various insect eggs. Gently patting the bedding after sun exposure can make it cleaner.

Fiber quilts and cotton quilts can be exposed to the sun for about 30 minutes at noon when the sun is bright. Down quilts and wool quilts should not be exposed to the sun for a long time, because the high temperature will cause some substances in the down and wool to produce an unpleasant odor.

Tip 2: Don’t rush to fold the quilt after getting up in the morning!

Studies have found that even in a tidy home, there are at least 15 million mites hidden on each bedding on average. The simplest way to deal with insect mites is to not fold the quilt after waking up. This way, the moisture inside the quilt will dry quickly, and external moisture will not be able to enter, which can reduce the survival of mites and reduce the chance of allergies and asthma.

For middle-aged and elderly people and children, due to their decreased immunity, they are also extremely susceptible to attacks by mites and various allergens. The power of mites is self-evident. LG Electronics, a leader in the home appliance industry, is considerate of consumer needs and has recently launched a new generation of mattress mite remover.
