In fact, many allergies, headaches and respiratory illnesses can be traced back to a soiled bed. Dust mites produce feces that are a common allergen in humans when inhaled. Bacteria and fungal spores can also trigger an immune response when taken into the body. Even worse, these pests have no natural enemies in their environment, so they reproduce at alarmingly quick rates. It’s not uncommon for a bed to harbor more than a million dust mites. In some cases, the sheer amount of dust mites can be enough to increase the weight of the bed.
Deep mattress cleaning can eliminate these pests and the problems they cause. Thorough maintenance can also eliminate stains and odors caused by spills, chemicals or organic soiling. Technology in this field has improved greatly in recent years. Technicians are now capable of eliminating more than 95 percent of dust mites and their waste material in a single treatment. This is particularly helpful during the holiday season, when family members of all ages and sensitivities gather in a single home. Family members who stay the night will need a place to sleep, and if they have bad allergies or a compromised immune system, they may be rendered sick by dust mites or other pathogens. Children and the elderly are often at extra risk because their immune systems aren’t as robust.
By neglecting bed maintenance, a homeowner is allowing dust mites, bacteria and fungal spores to affect their health and the health of their loved ones. Professional treatment stops this in its tracks, while also restoring the look and comfortable feel of the bed. There are many businesses that offer this service, but homeowners should only consider those that are thoroughly trained.
