You might be surprised to learn that your home is a potential haven for many allergens. In particular, dust build-up can lead to an increase in dust mites, which although they themselves are not an allergy trigger, their faeces is and can cause skin irritation and inflammation of the respiratory system.
Pollen can be brought into the home on clothing and pets as well as blown in through open windows and doors, leading to a build up during the pollen season.
To control the number of dust mites in your home you need to control the amount of dust build up. Regular vacuuming and dusting of surfaces will help. By using a duster that is electrostatically charged, such as our Ostrich Feather Duster, the dust will be attracted to the duster, preventing it from becoming airborne.
Pet areas need to be regularly cleaned to remove pet dander and hair. Oreck offers many pet cleaning solutions from outstanding vacuum cleaners that pick up pet hair, grooming tools, odour removal treatments and an additive which extends the life of the litter.
