What are dust mites?

Dust mites are very small creatures that live indoors in warm, moist places like the insides of pillows and mattresses and even carpets. These creatures are not the kind of bugs that you can spot, being invisible to the unaided eye. Their translucent bodies further hinder their visibility. Dust mites have no eyes or antennae, just eight legs and a mouth.

The protein substances in dust mite feces produce antibodies in allergic humans when the dust is inhaled or touches the skin. These antibodies trigger the release of histamines which cause nasal congestion, swelling and irritation of the upper respiratory passages.
