Mites
are tiny microscopic animals that thrive on dead human skin
cells in bedding, carpeting, and upholstery.
Dust mites leave behind fecal matter and disintegrating
body parts measuring 10 to 24 microns in size (the diameter
of a strand of human hair is 80 to 100 microns) - a powerful
allergen when inhaled.
But like mold, dust mites must have moisture to survive.
They do not drink water, but absorb moisture from the air.
They cannot live in low humidity conditions but thrive in
high humidity conditions. Your main weapon against dust
mites is to eliminate the source of moisture.
The Emeseal System will permanently seal out moisture from
the crawl space area, by far the No. 1 source of moisture
entry in any home.
