Mites are microscopic pests that are invisible to the naked eye. There are many types of mites, but any type of mite can cause discomfort to the human body. Babies have low immunity and are easily allergic to mites. So, how to treat a baby's mite allergy?
1. Regularly ventilate
Mites prefer environments with humidity, high temperatures, cotton and linen fabrics, and gray soil. The temperature range of 20-25 ℃ and relative humidity of 65% -80% are highly suitable for the development and reproduction of dust mites. So, dryness and frequent ventilation are the best weapons to eliminate them. In order to thoroughly prevent and control the harm of mites in the home, it is necessary to frequently open doors and windows, adhere to ventilation and light transmission, and especially pay attention to indoor ventilation and air exchange when using air conditioning.
2. Frequently drying new clothes
Except for being unable to ascend to the sky, mites go everywhere, especially preferring to settle on cotton and linen fabrics. So it is important to regularly clean and remove dust from clothing. Bedding can be washed with hot water at around 50 ℃ every two weeks. Also, try to simplify the layout of the bedroom as much as possible to facilitate dust removal. It is best not to lay carpets indoors, and do not place tapestries or other things that are prone to dust accumulation in the home.
3. Wet "homework" cleaning method
Mites and their excrement hidden in beds and sofas may fly in the air while tidying up the room, and then be inhaled into the bronchi, which can easily cause obvious allergic symptoms. When cleaning, be sure to use a damp cloth or a specially designed mite removal cloth to develop the habit of wet "work". Be sure to avoid dust from rising and reduce the opportunity for mites to disperse through the air.
4. Do not store too much food
Mites also have a strong preference for food, such as biscuits and milk powder, which are breeding grounds for mites; And high sugar foods such as white sugar, sliced sugar, maltose, syrup, etc. are the favorite of sweet mites. If they are accidentally allowed to enter the body, they can become a hidden danger for people to get sick. So, it is not advisable to store too much food at home, and the storage time should not be too long. After taking any medication containing syrup components such as sugar, sugar syrup, and syrup, the bottle cap should be tightened.
5. Stay away from pets and flower fertilizers
Keeping some flowers and plants at home is a good way of life, but it is best not to use fertilizers for flowers because fertilizers contain many mites and fungi. Flower fertilizers can also be applied to the roots of flowers and plants, which not only provides more nutrients but also reduces the growth rate of mites. In addition, pets can sometimes become a living environment for mites. If you have pets at home, be sure to regularly bathe and disinfect them.
