How to Control Dust Mites

Some people start to feel like they are allergic to their house. A runny nose, itchy and watering eyes, constant sneezing — these irritations can drive a person crazy! A very common cause of household allergies is the presence of dust mites. These microscopic creatures love to live and breed in carpets and rugs, but they can be kept under control and Preferred Carpet Care can help you do it.

What You Need to Know About Dust Mites

First, it’s not the mites themselves that you’re allergic to — it’s actually something worse! Dust mite droppings are a severe allergen for many people. And unlike seasonal allergies caused by certain types of pollen or molds, dust mites have the potential to live in your house year round! How do you get rid of dust mites?

Many people figure that simply vacuuming is enough to suck the dust mites out of their carpets and rugs. Unfortunately, this is not the case. If you want to get rid of dust mites, the only effective cleaning method, according to the WebMD website, is steam cleaning your carpet. And this is where Preferred Carpet Care of Redding is available for you!
