The Science

What are the risks of mites?

Learn all about mites

Scabies

Scabies is an infestation of the skin caused by the human itch mite. You'll develop rashes and experience intense itching that worsens in the evening.

Allergic Reactions from Dust Mites

Dust mite cast skins, feces, and other bodily secretions are just some of the 20-plus dust mite-associated allergens generated by these critters.

Lawn and Gardens

Well-fertilized lawns may attract clover mites when their plant-based foods are minimal or when other conditions encourage them to move indoors.
