Eliminating mites before autumn arrives is not just a matter of cleaning: it is a way to feel better, breathe more free and enjoy the house without thoughts. Green methods are the simplest and most sure to do it.


The mites of the dust slip everywhere, in the cushions, in the rugs, even between the folds of the curtains. With the first colds and windows that close more and more often, they become annoying invisible guests. It is no coincidence that many respiratory and allergic disorders worsen precisely in this period. So why not get rid of it in advance, without waiting for a problem to become? Anyone who dreams of entering the house and breathing air that knows fresh and not of dust.
The first step is concrete and immediate: to give a deep clean to the fabrics you use every day. Washing curtains, bedspreads, pillowcases and letting them dry in the sun already makes a huge difference. It is not necessary to wait for the symptoms to appear, better to move before.
Green remedies to eliminate mites
Aggressive detergents are not needed to say goodbye to mites. Exist natural methods who cost little and work very well. Sodium bicarbonate, for example, is a small home ally: dusted on rugs and mattresses, left to act and then aspirated, reduces the presence of mites. The essential oils – Tea Tree, Eucalipto, Lavender – not only perfume, but have antibacterial and pesticide properties. A few drops diluted in a splash of water are enough to refresh cushions and sofas.
A vacuum cleaner with HEPA filter is then a useful investment: it holds the tiny particles without putting them back in the circle. And don’t forget the oldest remedy in the world: sun and air. Leaving the blankets in the direct heat reduces the presence of mites naturally, without any effort. It is curious to think that it is the simplest solutions that have the most obvious results.
House cleaning and good habits
The mites never completely disappear, but the number can be reduced with small daily attention. Sometimes it is enough to observe the newly redone bed to understand that even the minimum gestures make the difference. There is no need to upset your routine, a little constancy is sufficient. And, let’s face it, nobody bears the air that knows about old powder.
Here are some habits that really work:
- Wash the sheets every week at temperatures above 60 ° C.
- Reduce superfluous fabrics such as heavy rugs or thick curtains that retain humidity.
- Use a dehumidifier to maintain humidity under 50%.
- Leave the bed unpaid for at least half an hour in the morning: a detail that limits the proliferation of mites.
Many think that fighting them is impossible, but the difference feels immediately. It is not just a question of health: living in a lighter and cleaner environment conveys immediate well -being.
Natural methods to deal with autumn without allergies and mites
Preparing for autumn with green remedies means choosing to live better. A lavender perfumed pillow, a mattress lying in the sun: they look like details, but they are the gestures that change the atmosphere of the house. And let’s face it, it’s more nice to know that you don’t breathe unnecessary chemicals.
Experts remember that constancy and simplicity are the key: no revolutions are needed, only small daily rituals that become habits. In the end, the real goal is not to eliminate every single mite – impossible business – but create an environment where their presence does not have a weight on health.
With the right precautions, autumn does not only bring leaves that fall, but also the pleasure of returning to a house that welcomes with freshness and tranquility.
