Making your bed in the morning is a message that has been drilled into us from a young age, but studies show that making our beds first thing in the morning could be turning our beds into a bacterial breeding ground. Dust mites and bacteria thrive in dark, warm and humid environments, and even the best mattresses with the latest in hypoallergenic technologies aren’t immune to their spread.
Dust mites are microscopic pests that dwell in approximately four out of five American homes. They thrive in dark, humid environments and can cause allergies and aggravate respiratory issues.
