You Don’t Wanna Know Whats Hidden In Your Mattress
Did you know that your mattress or pillow could be the home of millions of dust mites or several bed bugs? House dust mites are microscopic bugs that live on dead skin cells. Although they don’t carry diseases, they can be harmful to people with asthma or others who are allergic to dust mite feces. The American College of Asthma, Allergy and Immunology say that 10 percent of Americans are allergic to dust mites. Bed bugs are not microscopic, but can hide in many places. Bedbugs feed off of the blood of warm blooded animals. They inject their saliva into the skin of the host while they feed. They can remain unnoticed for long periods of time due to their flat shaped body.
Dust mites and bed bugs aren’t the only things you can find in your pillow or mattress. Many mattresses have seen better days. Animals or small children have all usually had an accident on a pillow or mattress. Rather than replacing the product completely, many people simple clean up the mess. Mattresses are also the victim of flu season and end up collecting the “effects.” (if you know what I mean).
Have I convinced you to use a protective cover yet?
Protective mattress covers are extremely inexpensive and can help your pillows and mattresses last longer. The covers will increase the life of your mattresses drastically. You will also get a better night’s sleep because you won’t have to worry about the “creatures” living in your pillow and mattress. These covers are dust-mite and bedbug proof. You will also be preventing common allergens from entering into your bed. You can also wash the cover and use it for years to come.
Don’t waste your time worrying about bedbugs and dust mites. Breathe better and sleep more peacefully on a protective cover. These covers will benefit your sleep and your health.
