Mites are predominantly found in mattresses, cushions and bed coverings, where they find optimum conditions of warmth and humidity and food (the skin scales we shed while sleeping).

This is why people allergic to mites develop more symptoms at night while sleeping (nose and eye itching, wheezing, etc.) or on getting up in the morning (sneezing, for example).

The application of environmental control measures is the first step the allergic patient should take to improve both quality of life and the results of treatment prescribed by the specialist.
