Apollo: Good afternoon everyone, have you heard about the

dust mite?

Migs: And today, how to prevent dust mites and living room
cleaning tips and tricks.

Apollo: But first, what are dust mites and dust mite allergies?
Well they are a large number of mites found in association with
dust in dwellings. Dust mites, close relatives of ticks and spiders,
are too small to see without a microscope. Dust mites eat skin
cells shed by people, and they thrive in warm, humid
environments. In most homes, such items as bedding,
upholstered furniture and carpeting provide an ideal
environment for dust mites.

Migs: Dust mite allergy is an allergic reaction to tiny bugs that

commonly live in house dust. Signs of dust mite allergy include
those common to hay fever, such as sneezing and runny nose.
Many people with dust mite allergy also experience signs of
asthma, such as wheezing and difficulty breathing.
Apollo: Doesn’t sound good right? Well there are ways to
prevent or get rid of them. Explained by {insert name}

???: Your mattress and pillows are dark. When you crawl into
bed you provide the warmth and moisture dust mites crave.
They just want to snuggle up and get a good meal.

Keep dust mites in their place. Put a barrier between you and the
dust mites with zippered dust mite proof mattress covers and
pillow encasements. These covers are made from special
materials that will not let dust mites get through. The mites are
trapped inside, cut off from all source of food. Eventually they
will die. Good riddance! Dead dust mites release allergens,
so it is important to keep the zippered covers on your
mattress, box springs and pillows all year long. And here
are a few living room cleaning tips and tricks

1. Pick up any trash. Bring a bag with you to eliminate

countless trips to the trash bin. Throw away all obvious
trash, such as wrappers and old mail, and if you have a
little extra time, assess your space for usefulness. Are
there objects that don’t get much use or don’t suit your
tastes anymore? Now may be a good time to get rid of the
excess.
 2. Dust Surfaces. Run a slightly damp cloth over main surfaces
such as the coffee table, TV, and shelves to pick up dust and
spot-clean any fingerprints. Microfiber cloths are perfect for
this step. [4]
 Dust from top to bottom, as dust falls and settles. This way you
won't have to go back over areas that you’ve already cleaned.
Start with the highest objects and work your way down.

3.straighten up the sofa. If you only have time for a basic

cleaning, it’s important to make sure the focal points of the
room like the sofa get the most attention. This way, you can
maximize your time and effort and make the room look
visibly cleaner.

 Fluff pillows, straighten seat cushions, and fold any blankets to

tidy up this area.
 Use a handheld vacuum or a vacuum wand extension to pick up
any crumbs, hair, or lint on the upholstery.

4. Straighten and stack any books or magazines on the coffee

table. If there are too many objects on the table it'll look
cluttered, but a few stacked print items can add a nice touch.

Apollo: That’s all and thank you all for watching.
