@MrDanielakadee Do you replace the bags in your vacuum everytime. Having dust mite infestations is usually caused by people who don't change they're vacuum bags therefore it loses suction and stops picking up everything and on top of that starts spitting dust out through the pores of the bag. But your mattress if it's at least a couple years old should have some but you would have to carry them in from somewhere so there in might lie the problem, maybe you need to get out more.

I'm actually NOT disturbed by these little guys. I mean, I don't see them or feel them crawling on me so they have no power to creep me out like a decent sized spider or a house centipede does.

The mites that live in our eyelashes are a little harder to take :/
