   Dust mites are microsopic critters that live in our carpets, and mattresses. they live off our dead skin cells

   They become problematic when we become allergic to their
   fecal pellets and dead body parts. some estimate there are one million in an average mattress. Having hardwood floors or linoleum is useful in the bedroom. so one can mop effiently to remove the most dust. Mattresses and box springs can be encased in plastic covers to reduce exposure
