Dust mites thrive on bedding, pillows, mattresses, upholstered furniture, stuffed toys, and carpets.  When inhaled the tiny dust mite droppings trigger coughing, stuffy nose, itchy eyes or wheezing. "Exposure to allergens produced by house dust mites - found in nearly every indoor environment - can lead to asthma in children who are predestined to developing the disease."       - Institute of Medicine

Cockroaches are a more serious health threat than most people realize. The saliva, feces and shedding body parts of cockroaches can trigger both asthma and allergies.  These allergens aggravate symptoms when they are kicked up in the air. 63 percent of American homes contain cockroach allergens.  Symptoms include coughing, nasal congestion, skin rash, wheezing, ear and sinus infection.                      - National Pest Management Association

Research shows that particles from secondhand tobacco smoke can settle in dust and on surfaces and remain there long after the smoke is gone. Smoke can trigger an asthma attack.

Common symptoms of smoke irritation are burning or watery eyes, nasal congestion, coughing, hoarseness and shortness of breathe presenting as a wheeze.  

Most people live in their homes unaware that their breathing problems, allergies and asthma are caused by airborne mold spores blown all throughout their house by their own air and heating system.

When mold spores land on something wet indoors they can cause allergic illness, trigger asthma, or lead to respiratory infections.

Common symptoms are red and itchy watery eyes, skin rashes, wheezing, nasal and sinus irritation and rash.

Pollen is one of the most common allergens in the U.S.  Over 67 million people suffer from allergies, and of those 67 million, 81% say they are allergic to pollen.

Various trees, grasses, and weeds create pollen, which can cause hay-fever, irritate your sinus passages, cause rhinitis and irritate your eyes and skin.

These include the gas-phase indoor air pollutants including from paints, solvents, glues, cleaners, and carbon-dioxide and formaldahyde.

VOC's may worsen allergies and asthma.  Children who sleep in bedrooms containing fumes from water-based paints and solvents are two to four times more likely to suffer allergies or asthma, according to a new scientific study.          - Scientific American

Staph are common bacteria living in the noses of one third of every human. If it gets into the body, often through a cut, it can cause an infection that starts as swollen, painful red bumps resembling pimples or spider bites.

MRSA, is resistant to antibiotics and is spread by contact with people or objects that have the bacteria on them. MRSA is carried by about 2% of the population (or 2 in 100 people), although most of them aren't infected.

Rhinovirus is highly contagious and is spread by hand-to-hand contact, and aerosol particles. It is the primary cause of common colds.

Symptoms include sore throat, runny nose, nasal congestion, sneezing and cough; sometimes accompanied by muscle aches, fatigue, malaise, headache, muscle weakness, fever and exhaustion.

"46% of North American homes have bedding with enough dust mite allergen to cause allergies. Of these homes, 24% had levels that were five times greater than the threshold to cause allergic reactions!"     - The National Institutes of Health, 2002

Dust mites gorging on dead skin flakes in nearly every bed in the world.  You can't completely eliminate them, but we can help you greatly reduce their population enough to free you of allergies caused by them.
