What is special about anti-allergy mattresses?
Over time all beds will attract dust mites whose droppings may cause some people, and it seems especially children, to suffer from asthmatic type complaints, or may make existing conditions worse. The solutions vary from regular laundry of the bed clothes to the use of various sprays. Specially treated fabrics are available for mattress ticking which help to eliminate this problem, usually by incorporating silver into the fabric, or by treating the fabric with silver salts. Always check with your retailer if you suffer from any allergy problem.
