Mites do not survive more than 2–3 days away from human skin.
Carpets and furniture should be carefully vacuumed to remove dead mites, eggs, and excrement that could still be in the fabrics.
Countertops and frequently touched surfaces should be wiped down with a disinfectant.
We strongly suggest using Mite-B-Gone Mite Killer Spray to reduce the chance of mite reinfestation.
It is crucial to wash clothes, bedding, and towels daily in hot water, disinfect your home entirely, and, if needed, repeatedly use Mite-B-Gone Mite Killer Spray during treatment to kill mites.
If someone has mites, their bedding, clothing, and towels can be safely cleaned by either machine-washing them in hot water and drying them on a hot cycle or by dry-cleaning them
We highly recommend using our ElimiMite Natural Enzyme Concentrate in your wash to penetrate and lift the dead mites, eggs, and excrement from all your washable bedding, clothing, and other washables.
Items that cannot be washed or dry-cleaned can be decontaminated by keeping them away from any body contact for at least 72 hours.
Mites will die if exposed to a temperature of 50°C (122°F) for 10 minutes. Putting the item in direct sunlight would also help ensure that the mites have been killed.
