Dust Mite Anti-Allergen
English
Your Home Environment
It is estimated that allergies affect some 40% of the population and this percentage is rising. Unclean carpets and furnishings
can harbor pesticides, heavy metals, and insecticides carried into the house on the soles of shoes and pets.
Research has shown that carpets and furnishings can act as a collector for allergens. When carpets are not professionally cleaned regularly all these particles can accumulate and become airborne.
Allergies, Asthma and the House Dust Mite
Some of the most common triggers for asthma are allergies, particularly the house dust mites (microscopic arachnids found wherever there is dust). There are about 3 million people in Hong Kong suffering from asthma including about 1.1 million children. A big part of this suffering can be attributed to the house dust mite.
House Dust Mite Facts
The average dust mite measures 0.3mm, and is not visible to naked eye. Over 70,000 can fit on a single fingernail.
A dust mite moults several times during its life producing 200 times its weight in waste and will lay 300 eggs.
It is the house dust mite waste, not the dust mites they, that trigger asthmatic and allergic attacks. Research has revealed that the trigger is a microscopic protein found in the dust
mite excrement called Der p1. Not only will having your house cleaned by Chem-Dry significantly reduce the Der p1 levels, but it will also improve the indoor air quality of your home.
How Chem-Dry Can Help You Maintain a Healthy Home
Contrary to popular belief, vacuuming your carpet with an ordinary vacuum cleaner can actually make the situation worse for the asthma sufferer. Although the dust is picked up, much of it including dust mites, allergens and bacteria is blown straight out of the cleaner's exhaust vents.
The first step in eliminating the dust mite is through giving your carpets & furnishings a professional cleaning, using our carbonating system. Having your furnishings cleaned will result in the Der p1 allergen being removed to almost undetectable levels.
The second stage of the Chem-Dry process is the application of the Dust Mite Anti-Allergen treatment. Studies have shown that when dust mite droppings are treated with Dust Mite Anti-Allergen, the allergens are physically changed rendering them permanently harmless to allergy sufferers.
