Dust mite allergy is one of the most common allergies that Americans suffer
from. It is estimated that 80-90% of allergic people are allergic to dust mites.
The most common symptoms are stuffy nose, runny nose, teary eyes, dry cough,
and even aches and headaches.
Most people suffer from dust mite allergies without even realizing it. If you
tend to wake up in the morning congested there is a very good chance you may
suffer from dust mite allergies. Visit your allergist to see if you are allergic
to dust mites or take a few simple dust mite elimination steps to see if you
start feeling better.
Dust mites can be found in almost all households. They live in carpets, fabric
upholstered furniture, curtains and, most of all, in beds. Dust mites feed on
shed human skin, and can live anywhere the humidity is above 40% and there are
humans. Below you will find some of the ways you can protect yourself from dust
mite infestations and their allergens.

in size, including most allergens. More... |
