What are dust mites?

Dust mites are microscopic creatures related to spiders and ticks that feed on animal or human skin scales. Therefore they thrive in mattresses, pillows, bedding, carpets, soft furnishings and clothes.

Now mites do not bite and are not known to transmit disease, but some people develop allergies to the protiens in the mite body or the mite droppings – which are a particularly strong source of allergen.

Why Spring Clean?

Spring has brought comfort to us for thousands of years.  But we are not the only ones who enjoy gentle warmth.  Dust Mites and other microscopic bacteria that have built up inside the house over winter also thrive as the weather warms and they can cause allergic reactions in some people.  Through winter we lock up the house and provide a safe haven for these bugs.  Now is the time to get rid of them!
