rubbing alcohol and water, half and half, in a spray bottle, air to dry, then vacuum before putting clean sheets on.

My son is itchy due to dust mites and the leavings. We got the dust-mite proof sheets, my wife puts a cotten sheet over it. However he is still itchy. How about using one of those weather proof sleeping bags? Thanks.

I've seen some that are vinyl (cheapest), polypropylene, and cotton (most expensive). But I've also read that cotton doesn't work 100% against dust mite feces (which is actually what most people are allergic to).
Anyone have any insight?
Thanks.

Does anyone have any tips on getting rid of dust mites (or at least preventing them from causing allergies)? I have dust mite covers on my mattress, box spring and pillows. What vacuum cleaners work best? I've been considering a Dyson Animal (because I have cats). Your thoughts?
Thanks!

I just bought some dust mite covers for my mattress, box spring, and pillows.
I was just wondering if I should put tape over the zippers of the covers to keep dust from escaping?
Thanks.
