Mattress Protectors

Every night each of us sheds 10,000 million scales of dead skin tissue, in addition to one pint of body moisture. This leads to ideal breeding conditions for the house dust mite and other bacteria.
An estimated 2 million dust mites thrive in an unprotected mattress. It is the inhalation of the dead mites & their droppings which cause's allergies, asthma, rhinitis and eczema.

DUST MITES ARE SO SMALL THAT 3 CAN FIT ONTO A PIN POINT! IMAGINE HOW SMALL THEIR FACES ARE? IT ONLY TAKES 4 MONTHS FOR UNPROTECTED BEDDING TO BECOME INFESTED!

A person may be allergic to mites, bacteria, mould spores, food particles and other debris but the dust mites seem to cause the most problems. Prolonged exposure to dust mite  faecal particles can trigger asthma attacks and many other allergic reactions such as runny nose, watery eyes, morning congestion, eczema and hay fever.

House dust is a mixture of many substances and also a common cause for such symtoms. Your mattress can't be washed, and, if unprotected, its inhabitants and dust combined can lead to un-hygenic conditions.

Persistent bedwetting or enuresis creates stress and trauma for both adults and children who may feel ashamed, embarrased or experience low self eseteem. Facts to consider:
• Statistics show 1 in 5 children will bed wet.
• About 1 in 10 six year olds may wet the bed 3 to 4 nights a week.
• Enuresis affects many age groups and is the term most widely used to describe bedwetting in children who are old enough to be "potty trained" and adults who experience loss of bladder control at night.
• The dust mite is found in every home, particularly in bedding, mattress and undersheets where they thrive in large numbers. They eat microscopic flakes of human skin which we shed every night during our sleep. Reacent studies show that as much as 30% of the population suffer from allergies and 80% of asthmatics had a positive skin test to mites.
