Scary Dustmites

Now, this is freaky.

Puts a whole new perspective on, “Good night. Don’t let the bed bugs bite.”

If only you had listened to your parents.

    My 41/4 year old daughter has had what i thought to be an extensive cough/cold on and off since aug 2005. we had her tested and she is allergic to dust mites. Great!!! For the last 5 years I have been developing a rash on my face. perhaps roseacia or eczema. I now think that I am possibly reacting to the dustmites myself. My head scalp itches and falkes often. so we are buying allergic specific linen and ridding ourselves of carpet. Im trying to target the vacuuming more and relax less on cloth covered cushions.

    I’m not a professional on this and am learning about it.

    I hope it helps.
