Professional Cleaning Of Your Mattress

Why should Mattresses be cleaned regularly? Bed Mates!

Constant room climate, temperature and humidity in particular make the mattress an ideal environment and breeding place for house dust mites, bacteria, viruses and spores. One third of our life is spent asleep in our beds. Each night we loose an average of 1.5 grams of dry skin, which settles on the mattress or is drawn into it, where it provides a rich source of food for the house dust mite.

The house dust mite produces 200 times its body weight in excrement during its lifespan. This excrement at first adheres to the fibres in the fabric as small mucus coated balls. These decompose into a fine powder like dust containing allergen called GUANINE, which is known to cause allergic reactions in humans.

As is the case with many things in life, it is only when things reach high concentration, that they become dangerous. With as many as one million dust mites in a mattress the concentration of GUANINE containing mite excrement is extremely high and this is where the danger, which should not be underestimated, begins.

Numerous scientific reports and studies confirm that GUANINE represents a real health risk and is the major cause of asthma attacks, inflammation of the skin, reddening of the eyes, coughing and inflammation of the mucous membrane, particularly in the nose. The real risk though lies in the fact, that once an allergy has developed against a certain substance, the person has this for the rest of his or her life.
