Dust mites, although too small to see with the naked eye, colonise furniture in the thousands, feeding on the dead skin cells or flakes that our body naturally disposes of on a daily basis. Dust mite faeces can trigger allergies, impede our breathing capabilities amongst many other health related conditions. Today, most physicians agree that dust mite droppings is one of the most widespread sources of allergic reactions, second only to pollen.
