Dust Mites In Your Carpet? Facts about the Dust Mites
Dust Mites are the source of one allergen that might be causing you to sneeze and cough, or why we are often ill. Dust Mites create household dust and although you may not be able to see them, smell them or even hear them - they are there.
Dust Mites main food source for life are human dead skin flakes and animal dander. What you might not know is that humans lose a layer of skin every 28 days and this is what Dust Mites thrive on. Your dead skin is protein matter for the Dust Mite.
Did you know that 42,000 Dust Mites can live in only one ounce of dust. Did you know that 40 pounds of dust is generated per year in 1,500 square feet area of space. Dust hosts 15 species of Dust Mites and it is estimated that you breathe in 2 heaping teaspoons of air particles per day, including dust!
The British Textile Technology Group says that 83% of household dust is produced from dead skin cells shed by humans. But we're not alone because Du Pont reports that 70% of Dust Mites in US homes with carpeting also have either a dog, a cat or both. Because we have pets we also have pet accidents on our carpet and that along with pet dander and human skin leaves a feeding ground for the Dust Mites.
Well, before you start disposing of your carpet you might think about cleaning it, the carpet is not the problem. How often you are cleaning and how might be. Hot Water Extraction cleaning is the best way to help with this situation.
Coast Carpet Cleaning uses a truck mount unit which will reach the temperature required for sanitation (cold water does not harm Dust Mites). Also by agitation from the high pressure water solution and vacuum extraction, this all helps with the physical extraction of the Dust Mites.
