Dust Mites

These arachnids (related to spiders) are the leading cause of allergies and asthma. They are microscopic and feast on the dead dander from humans and animals. Dust mites do not bite but they shed exoskeleton and droppings which can cause allergies for some people. Dust mites requires a RH of above 60-65% for breeding. The best way to prevent dust mites is to control the humidity of your homes.
