Dust mites are tiny bugs that live in your home. They are close relatives of ticks and spiders and are too small to be seen in a microscope. Dust mites can survive in all climates and at most altitudes. Dust mites eat organic matter like skin cells shed by people and thrive in warm and humid environments. Dust contains the decaying bodies of dust mites and it is its proteins that cause dust mite allergy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Why are some people allergic to dust mites?<\/b><\/p>\n

When you breathe in the air which contains dust mites, your immune system produces antibodies against the normally harmless substances. This immune response causes the symptoms associated with dust allergy such as runny nose and sneezing. Prolonged and regular exposure to the allergen can cause asthma.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Ways to minimize dust mites and tips to get relief from dust allergy<\/b><\/p>\n

Dust allergy is a common type of allergy but very difficult to live with. Sneezing, running nose, tearful eyes, cough and difficulty in breathing are common symptoms of dust allergy. It is mainly caused due to the presence of dust particles in the air. People with dust allergies often take pills to keep themselves healthy. Here are some of the methods to get relief from dust allergy.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hot water<\/b><\/p>\n

Wash bed linens once a week in hot water and make sure you dry it in the sun. Direct sunlight kills dust mites, so hang your beddings in the sun whenever possible.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Probiotics<\/b><\/p>\n

Allergies are caused due to an imbalance in the immune system which causes the body to react strongly to the stimulus. Consume healthy foods to balance the gut bacteria. Take more curd as it boosts the gut bacteria.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Steam<\/b><\/p>\n

Taking steam is another way of getting rid of dust mites. Take some hot water in a large bowl and bend over the steam released by it. Cover your head with a towel to inhale the stem fully. Do this for atleast 10 minutes. This process clears your nasal passage and helps you to breathe properly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Pillows<\/b><\/p>\n

Buy a new pillow every 6 months since dust and dust mites live on pillows.as pillow covers once in a week and dry it under sunlight.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Carpets<\/b><\/p>\n

Carpets provide a comfortable habitat for dust mites. This is true if the carpet is over concrete which holds moisture and provides a humid environment for dust mites. Replace carpeting with tile, wood or vinyl flooring.\u00a0 Vacuuming carpets and furniture regularly removes the surface dust.<\/span><\/p>\n

Humidity<\/b><\/p>\n

Dust mites die when the humidity falls below 50%. So, maintain the humidity below 50% in your home. Use a dehumidifier or air conditioner to keep the humidity low. Also a hygrometer can be used to measure the humidity levels.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Wool<\/b><\/p>\n

Wool is a natural fiber that keeps moisture away and releases it from the bedding, creating a dry environment for dust mites to survive. Wool bedding doesn\u2019t need to be washed at high temperatures to be allergy-friendly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Damp mop<\/b><\/p>\n

Damp wipe the surfaces rather than dusting them as this traps the mites and removes them. Wipe the unseen surfaces such as window sills, and top of cupboards and doors.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Hire deep cleaning services<\/b><\/p>\n

Exposure to dust mites can impact the health of people with asthma. Follow all these tips to ensure that your home is free from dust mites. Use curtains and window coverings that are washable and use vertical blinds which can be wiped with a damp cloth. Avoid fabrics and bed linens which attract dust.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
