1, how to judge whether there are mites on the bed?
Mites are most likely to breed in mattresses and bedding, and beds are what we use every day. Imagine what a terrible thing it would be to sleep in a bed full of mites. So, how to judge whether there are mites on the bed?
I can definitely tell you that there must be mites on the bed. It's just a matter of more or less without judgment.
Found a brand-new quilt, only used for one month, the number of mites and bacteria reached millions. After three months of use, the content of mites and bacteria will increase by 30%! It will increase by 50% after half a year! Therefore, experts suggest that quilts that have been used for more than 5 years must be discarded.
Mites are easy to cause skin infections and multiply rapidly in a warm environment. They feed on human dander and can also infect each other through people. When mites are newly infected, they parasitize in places that are easy to contact, suitable for their growth and reproduction, and rich in sebaceous glands, such as nose, forehead and face.
At the initial stage of infection, there will be some symptoms. For example, when a few people sweat and sleep at night, they will feel a slight itching on their noses and faces, and blackheads will appear after a while. This is caused by the secretion discharged by mites, clogging pores and drying and hardening.
Moreover, the pores will gradually thicken, and the skin will begin to change from neutral to mixed and then to oily. If there is no timely and effective care at this time, it is easy to cause skin inflammation. According to medical data, the infection rate of adult mites is as high as 97%, which causes skin redness, itching, allergy and even ulceration. 80%-90% of infant asthma is caused by mites, which seriously affects people's lives.
2. How to remove mites from the bed?
1. Be sure to dry the bedding.
Mites are afraid of high temperature. When the temperature exceeds 25 degrees, mites will feel uncomfortable all over. When the temperature exceeds 50 degrees, mites can become "mummies". Therefore, sheets and bedding should be dried frequently. Sunlight is the most natural thing. It is a good habit for people to bask in the sun when they have nothing to do, which can keep them healthy.
In addition, it is widely rumored on the Internet that when you take out the quilt to dry at night, you will smell a so-called "smell of the sun". In fact, the smell of the sun should be the smell of ozone, and mites are mostly composed of water. Don't be afraid to leave dead mites after exposure to the sun.
If you are really afraid of residue, you can pat the quilt after sunbathing and shake off the limb fragments and excrement of mites. It should be noted that it is recommended that the quilt core and mattress be exposed to the sun for 2 or 3 hours every half month. When the sun is strong, it is best to choose 1 1 to 15. Try to get more sunshine in sunny weather in winter.

Drying and frequent ventilation are one of the best weapons to eliminate them. Always open the doors and windows during the day and insist on ventilation and light transmission, especially when using air conditioning.
Of course, if conditions permit, you can use high-tech building materials such as breathing rooms or nano-materials, and control the indoor air humidity to inhibit the growth of mites and maintain indoor hygiene.
5. Iron sheets and clothes.
Mites on sheets and clothes can be eliminated by cleaning and exposure, and they are also afraid of iron, because the temperature of this guy is really too high. High temperature can make mites attached to the surface have nowhere to escape. Coupled with the strong steam of 500KPA, it has strong penetrating power, and the secondary pressure heating of the soleplate is not wet after ironing, which can completely eliminate mites. In addition, the steam ironing machine can also remove mites.
