I am sorry, but no. These images were difficult to make, and I must protect my copyright.

It is 40X, a low-power dissecting microscope. The problem is not the microscope; it is getting the mites. Scroll down to my replies to sudhirsetia6717 5 years ago

@@jeffreymiller4534 Thank you I will try as you recommend sudhirsetia6717. Do you have experience with the Berlese funnel?

No, you need a microscope. These images were at 40X magnification. Note also that I am using dust mite cultures; you could not see this number of mites in a natural sample of dust.

Yes. One small bit of newer knowledge is that warm water washing is sufficient in top loading washing machines (where the blanket is submerged in water for longer periods of time, allowing the mites to die by drowning) but hot water should be used in the newer, front loading "high efficiency" washing machines, where the items are repeatedly sprayed but not allowed to soak for long. Most high efficiency machines have a direct temperature control, so there is no need to raise the temperature of the hot water throughout the house. Separate from allergen-avoidance, another change is a newer treatment alternative to allergy injections, namely "sublingual immunotherapy".

​@@jeffreymillermd Thank you for your reply. I'm currently doing allergy injections (specific immunotherapy) for the second time, I started half a year ago. I have not considered sublingual immunotherapy, but I will talk to my doctor about it.

Probably. But it is not the mite itself that is inhaled; it is their “poop”, which is the same size as a pollen grain and which contains the allergens.

I've bought a new mattress, used anti dust mite bed sheet covers, tried antihistamines (allegra, claritin, reactine), used neils med sinus rinse, used nasal sprays (fluorine, avamys, 3 others) made my room the right humidity and temperature, washed everything twice a week, use a hepa air cleaner. Removed carpetting and curtains in my room. Yet nothing has worked.

@@Virtuoso-wz5lq It sounds like you have done the right things for dust mite allergy. However, I am tired from clinical practice, and cannot give individual medical advice remotely. Are you sure that you don't have another allergy or another condition altogether? Have you seen a Board Certified Allergist?

@@jeffreymiller4534 I went to see a certified allergist and once it was done all they said to me was that I was severely allergic to dusmites. They never brought up any anything else. Just dust mites.

@@Virtuoso-wz5lq As I said, I cannot make diagnostic or treatment recommendations specific to your case. But in situations like this, possibilities to think about include: 1. You know that I have a commercial conflict of interest here, but it is a fact that some encasings marketed as being mite-allergen-proof are not. 2. There might be unrecognized sources of mite exposure (e.g. a couch, a damp basement, clothing) 3. there could be a concomitant condition in addition to the mite allergy (e.g. an allergy to cow's milk or another food; nasal polyps; chronic sinusitis) 4. an adjustment of medication may be required. (if the mite allergy is strong enough it might not respond to allergen-avoidance alone). The bottomline is that this should be the allergist's problem to solve, and you should consider returning to your allergist to report your lack of response, or consider obtaining a second opinion.

😢 ive dealth with dust mites twice, this time I almost got rid of em again which took me about 2 - 2 1/2 months. Ive smothered em in baby oil all over my body, other creams, clorox the floor, poison the floor, tossed my bed, been sleeping in a gamer chair for 2 months, smoke bombed the house and car, used rubbing alcohol, and more... it seems they hate mint so i coat myself in mouthwash... it helped. I mop my floor in poison meant for them.

You are correct. Air cleaners produce the most benefit for allergens that stay in the air for long periods of time, namely pet allergens and pollens. Most mite allergen exposure is from direct contact with bedding, clothing, carpets, upholstered furniture, etc. Mite allergens become airborne when these materials are disturbed, but the allergens fall from the air relatively quickly, and are thus not available for removal by air purifiers. An air purifier can't hurt, but it is low on the list of priorities for mite allergy.

Are you talking about a blanket? What makes you think there are dust mites?

Very very very super hot water boiled will kill dust mites your temps water is not that hot

Dust mites are happy in expensive wool carpets too!

No, they are microscopic. You cannot catch one with your hand, and they do not bite.

Thanks. I'm glad you found it helpful.

Then use cold or warm water. It will not get out all of the mites, but it will get out most of them. You can also put the items in the clothes dryer first (i.e. dry) for 10 minutes, which will kill the mites; then wash the item in cold water.
