DUST MITES - Thousands sleep with you and may cuase health problems!!!

Full Article: http://www.aerias.org/kvi...=1&subid=3



What are dust mites?

Dust mites are living, spider-like microscopic insects that can travel through the air and are too small to be seen. They feed off dead skin cells from humans and animals as well as mold spores, so they are almost everywhere. Dust mites, like other biological contaminants, contribute to poor indoor air quality (IAQ) and may be a major cause of days lost from work and school because they can make you sneeze, trigger allergic reactions, cause rashes, watery eyes, coughing, dizziness, lethargy, breathing difficulties, and digestive problems. Exposure to dust mites, animal dander, cat saliva and mold causes about 200,000 emergency-room visits a year for asthma patients.

Dust mites are commonly found in:

* House dust
* Bedding: There are thousands of dust mites in your bed every night.
* Carpets: Nearly 100,000 dust mites can live in one square yard of carpet.2
* Sofas

Are there health problems that can be caused by dust mites?

In 1921 researchers first hypothesized that house dust may contain allergens that may cause asthmatic episodes. Allergens are biological or chemical substances that can cause the human body to develop a specific immune response with each exposure, even when exposure levels are low. However, house dust was not actually analyzed until 1964 when a group of investigators led by Voohorst suggested that a mite may be responsible for dust allergies.3
