One of the major suspects for triggering allergy is dust mites.
Mite fecal matter can cause sneezing, coughing, and runny noses in sensitive people. It can also trigger life-threatening asthma attacks, especially in kids.
Think about this: Twenty-thousand microscopic dust mites feasting on dead skin can live in a piece of dust the size of a jelly bean.
So here’s what you need to do to be proactive:
Suck it up. Vacuum your floors, upholstered furniture, and drapes.
Get bare. Bare floors are best. But you can put area rugs outside in direct sunlight for a day, and then vacuum again to remove the dead carcasses and eggs.
And don’t serve the bugs breakfast in bed, replace your pillow regularly. Remember, a two year old pillow can harbor piles of poop.
