Mites Extermination

Mites Extermination

Mites are a widespread group of tiny insects (arthropods) which include mites and ticks and can cause health problems for vulnerable individuals. They are found mainly in mattresses (at a rate of 90-100%) and it is typical that in a five-year mattress a population of 5,000 to 15,000 mites per square centimeter can be found! In other words, there may be almost 2 million of these spiders in one layer! Beds, rugs, carpets, wall papers, plush toys, pillows are also among the most important outbreaks of mite growth, which are favored by humidity and high temperatures.

Daily ways of prevention

Remember that the decisive factor in eliminating mites is cleanliness in general, as well as the issue of mattresses, sheets and carpets in particular. The ideal cleaning period is spring and autumn. Also do not forget that sunlight is a very strong enemy of mites. That's why it should adequately penetrate all the rooms in your home without exception. Ventilation for at least half an hour a day is also especially important, and even more so during the summer, because it prevents the multiplication of mites and the formation of dust. Keeping the humidity low (below 50%) is an equally important way to reduce the mite population. All these precautionary measures are clearly important, but professional disinfection is in any case the simplest and safest way to reduce the frequency of growth of mites and to reduce the intensity of allergies they cause.
