Will dust mite quilt cover help with allergies?
These covers are specifically designed to create a barrier that dust mites cannot penetrate. Dust mites, which are common triggers for allergies and asthma, thrive in the warm and humid environment of bedding. Their droppings and body fragments can cause allergic reactions when inhaled.
By using a dust mite-proof quilt cover, you can significantly reduce your exposure to these allergens. These covers are typically made from tightly woven fabric that prevents dust mites from entering or exiting. This not only helps to keep the quilt itself free from dust mites but also reduces the amount of allergen present in the bedroom environment.
For individuals who suffer from dust mite allergies, using these protective covers can lead to a noticeable improvement in allergy symptoms, especially respiratory issues and skin irritations. It's also beneficial to complement the use of dust mite covers with regular washing of bedding in hot water to kill any mites and remove allergens.

Superior quality dust mite protectors
-
Designed to create an impenetrable barrier
These protectors are designed to prevent dust mites and their allergens from passing through the fabric, seams or stitching. Mattress, pillow and duvet protectors prevent the development of allergies like eczema, rhinitis, and asthma.
-
Exceptionally tight weave
The pillow, mattress and duvet protectors come in two options: cotton and waterproof. They are made from either a densely woven cotton fabric with a pore size of approximately 2.8µm (microns) or a waterproof knitted jersey fabric with an even smaller pore size of less than 2µm. Allergen particles range between 5µm and 20µm in size.

Zippered covers
When the protector is fully zippered, it forms a barrier that prevents dust mites and their allergens from escaping the enclosed area. This effectively blocks dust mites, reducing the risk of triggering allergies and asthma symptoms.
