Dust mites often build up in your
home. That said, it’s easy to miss them because of how busy life can be.
Since dust is such a common allergy, you need to be vigilant of how it
can get into the air circulated throughout your home, primarily
through the return vents and then are pushed out through the supply
vents.. With summer temperatures soaring, you’ll be leaning on your
home’s HVAC unit more and more, which can make any problems worse.
Some Quick Facts about Dust Mites
Without a doubt, dust mites are the most common trigger for allergies and
asthma problems that could affect you and your family. The mites leaving
their limbs and droppings around your home is what triggers the allergies,
even if we don’t notice them right away. Typical symptoms of allergic
reactions include sneezing, coughing, postnasal drip, runny nose, itchy,
and irritated eyes; other symptoms include stuffy nose, itchy throat, and
itchy skin.
Plus, asthma can make you feel even worse. You’ll struggle to breathe,
your chest will feel tight, and you’ll notice a whistling or wheezing
sound every time you exhale. Because of coughing, wheezing, and trouble
breathing, you might also see you’ll have trouble sleeping.
Why Do Dust Mites Follow Us Around?
If you have a large family or a group of pets, then you might notice that
your dust problem is much worse than usual. Dust mites especially enjoy
areas with higher levels of moisture and humidity. It may surprise you
just how many bugs can lurk inside your home. For instance, there could be
up to 100,000 only in one square yard of carpet. Now take a minute to
think about how much carpet you have in your home and how often you have
those
carpets
cleaned. Mattresses and pillows can be loaded with even more.
