How Do You Eliminate Biting Dust Mites?
Dust mites are microscopic organisms that can invade your home and become a source of misery for its occupants, especially those who have allergies. People are not allergic to the insects themselves, but to their excretions. So you not only have to get rid of the dust mites, you need to make sure all evidence of them has been eradicated. Here are some steps to take to get these varmints out of your living quarters. Find the source.

Look for and remove (or, better yet, have a professional remove) the nests of any wild animals that are close to your home. Check the eaves of your roof, fireplaces, chimneys, window ledges, attics and crawl spaces. Also, inspect plants and shrubbery around your home for evidence of these insects. Use an insecticide to eliminate any you find. Check your pets as well and use a spray or dust recommended by your vet. I
