A dust mite can live for an average of 2 to 3.5 months and excrete 200 times its body weight, so you can imagine how lethal it is! And its appearance in the dormitory is not a single line, but a group of people wandering around your bed. Want to KO dust mites and improve allergic symptoms such as itchy skin, nasal allergies, or eye allergies caused by allergic reactions to dust mites? Cleaning your home frequently and using anti-dust mite bedding is definitely the best way to prevent dust mite allergic reactions. However, with so many similar products on the market, how to make a suitable choice? The answer can be found in the Council's research report.
According to the Council's 548th issue, 15 models of bed sheets and mattress protectors on the market that claimed to have antibacterial or anti-mite functions were tested and the results showed that the MiteProtex mite samples had the highest overall score (5 stars) in terms of antibacterial performance, anti-mite performance and chemical testing, with the brand scoring 5, 4.5 and 5 respectively.
First of all, in terms of antimicrobial performance, Mite-Protex performed well and effectively inhibited the growth of Staphylococcus aureus and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Staphylococcus aureus can exist on the surface of the skin, do not underestimate its lethality, especially for people with skin wounds, Staphylococcus aureus can cause severe sepsis. Klebsiella pneumoniae may cause pneumonia and urinary tract infections in people with weakened immunity.
In terms of anti-mite performance, the physical anti-mite effect of the Mite-Protex sample can completely prevent dust mites from passing through. Because it uses "physical anti-mite technology", laminates are pressed on textiles, and microfibers or tighter weaving methods (pinhole diameter of about 5 microns) are used to produce, so that the gaps between the fibers are smaller, making it difficult for dust mites and dust mite excreta to penetrate, and preventing users from being exposed to dust mite allergens. In terms of chemical tests, the Mite-Protex samples were tested to be free of azo dyes and formaldehyde, which are not banned by the European Union, and after 10 washes, there was no discolouration or severe shrinkage.
In fact, the most effective way to prevent dust mites should start from the inside and outside, and use dust mite prevention bedding outside; Immunotherapy can be used to train the immune system, and after 5 minutes a day, the sublingual desensitization solution can be placed under the tongue, and after 8 to 9 months, there will be a significant improvement effect.
