Symptoms of Dust Mite Allergy
Do You Have a House Dust Mite Allergy?
Common Symptoms of Dust Mite Allergy
If you notice these symptoms — especially at night or when waking up — you may be reacting to house dust mite allergens:
- Sneezing or post-nasal drip
- Itchy, red, or watery eyes
- Stuffy or blocked nose (perennial allergic rhinitis)
- Dry coughing at night or while in bed
- Wheezing or asthma symptoms
- Eczema (atopic dermatitis)
- Scratching or itching in bed
- Feeling tired and lethargic
- Dark rings under the eyes
- Itchy skin or rash
- Constant runny or congested nose
- Year-round hay fever symptoms
Why These Symptoms Happen
- House dust mites live in bedding, mattresses, and fabric furniture.
- Their droppings contain proteins that trigger allergic reactions.
- Allergen exposure is highest when in bed, making night-time symptoms common.
What Can You Do About It?
- Use zip-up dust mite covers on your mattress, pillow, and quilt/duvet.
- These covers form a physical barrier that blocks mite allergens.
AllergEnd Dust Mite Protective Covers are specially designed to reduce your exposure to allergens while you sleep.
They help relieve:
- Asthma and wheezing
- Itchy skin and eczema
- Blocked or runny nose
- Night-time coughing and irritation
If you can avoid contact with high concentrations of mite allergens, your symptoms can be greatly reduced — and so can your need for medication.
