People who get allergies because of house dust mites know how irritating these little creatures can be and how difficult it is to get rid of them...

House dust mites are everywhere, in each home. But they especially love our:

House dust mites or dermatohagoides pteronissinus are invisible to our eyes, as their size is only 0.2 to 0.3 mm. Their appearance reminds us of spiders.

They particularly like the following life conditions:

• constant temperature around 20 degrees Celsius,
• relatively high air humidity from 60 to 80%,
• humidity in immediate environment (e.g. human sweat).

Why are some people allergic to house dust mites?

Each one of us has an immune system that fights diseases and, if necessary, activates appropriate substances in our body to end the disease or infection that affects us. In case of some individuals, their body recognizes the allergens, which are otherwise not harmful to the body, as harmful or damaging and provokes a reaction.

In most cases, the body starts releasing histamine that consequently provokes an allergic reaction. This is why, an allergy can be thought of as a mistake, made by human immune system.
