Bed bugs are small, oval, wingless insects that reach about 1/5” in length. They belong to the insect family Cimicidae, which includes three species that bite people. Bed bugs have flat bodies and are reddish-brown in color. They may sometimes be mistaken for ticks or small cockroaches. Bed bugs feed by sucking blood from humans or animals.
One of the most strongly allergenic materials found indoors is house dust, often heavily contaminated with the fecal pellets and cast skins of House Dust Mites. Estimates are that dust mites may be a factor in 50 to 80 percent of asthmatics, as well as in countless cases of eczema, hay fever and other allergic ailments. Common causes of allergy include house dust mites, cat dander, cockroach droppings and grass pollen. Symptoms are usually respiratory in nature (sneezing, itching, watery eyes, wheezing, etc.), usually NOT A RASH. However, there are reports of a red rash around the neck. Other allergic reactions may include headaches, fatigue and depression.
The wheeze-inducing proteins are digestive juices from the mite gut which are quite potent. An exposure to the mites in the first, crucial year of life can trigger a lifelong allergy. There is no cure, only prevention. One must control house dust mite levels.
Beds are a prime habitat (where 1/3 of life occurs). A typical used mattress may have anywhere from 100,000 to 10 million mites inside. (Ten percent of the weight of a two year old pillow can be composed of dead mites and their droppings.) Mites prefer warm, moist surroundings such as the inside of a mattress when someone is on it. A favorite food is dander (both human and animal skin flakes). Humans shed about 1/5 ounce of dander (dead skin) each week. About 80 percent of the material seen floating in a sunbeam is actually skin flakes. Also, bedroom carpeting and household upholstery support high mite populations.

Look bed bugs, mites and skin dander up on the net. You shed skin, therefore you end up with bed bugs and mites. They bite and poop in your bed. Good luck on the paper.
Can also make allergies out of control not to wash them.

Bed bugs and mites? What about drool and eye crust? My dad has this pillow he never washes, and it's got all these brown splotches all over it like somebody used it to wipe up a murder scene and couldn't wash it clean.

I heard that the little bed bug mites in your bed look like little microscopic lobsters. Nobody likes to hear that they have lobsters scuttling around in their bed, pinching at them while they're asleep. It's creepy.

Ally,
Check the Chlorox website. They have a lot of justification why you should wash your sheets with their products (though I prefer Oxi Clean).

do not masturbate with clolthes on, try jerking off interior the bathe. in case you want to do it in mattress then sleep on your undies, and ascertain your no longer less than the covers once you masturbate. Tissues are continually good to freshen up, you are able to flush them down the rest room too. i do not imagine you are able to ward off getting semen on your body at the same time as jerking off notwithstanding it really is effortless to freshen up with tissues and such. do exactly not use your clothing to freshen up and masturbate on excellent of your covers.
