Unexplained Presence of Mites on Food

If you notice small, crawling insects on stored food or pantry items, mites could be contaminating your food sources.

Finding Mites on Bedding or Fabrics

Mites often infest bedding, pillows, or upholstered furniture. Look for signs of irritation on your skin after contact with these items, indicating the presence of mites.

Unusual Mite Activity During Specific Times

If you notice a sudden increase in itching or skin irritation, especially at night, it may be due to the activity of mites, which tend to be more active in the dark.

Why Do Mites Invade Homes?

Mites often invade homes in search of food, moisture, and a suitable breeding environment. Your home provides a perfect haven, especially in warm, humid areas. Dust mites, for instance, thrive in mattresses, carpets, and upholstery, while other types of mites look for food sources like pet bedding or stored food.

Prevention Tips

Keep areas clean and dust-free, especially in bedrooms and living spaces
Wash bedding, pet beds, and soft furnishings regularly
Use airtight containers to store food and eliminate crumbs
Reduce humidity levels by using dehumidifiers in damp areas
Fix leaky pipes or areas where moisture collects

How to Get Rid of Mites?

Use Mite Treatment Products

Specialized miticides are effective in killing mites. Apply these products to areas where mites are commonly found, like bedding, carpets, and pet areas.

Seal Moisture Sources

Mites thrive in humid environments. Use dehumidifiers, seal leaks, and fix any moisture issues to reduce the likelihood of mite infestations.

Wash Bedding and Upholstery Regularly

Wash your sheets, pillowcases, pet beds, and upholstery frequently with hot water to kill dust mites and remove allergens.

Deep Clean Your Home

Vacuum frequently to remove dust and debris that may harbor dust mites. Pay special attention to mattresses, carpets, and soft furnishings.

Use Essential Oils

Essential oils like eucalyptus, tea tree, and lavender are natural mite repellents. Use a diffuser or spray solution in mite-prone areas.
