So it’s the time of the year for flowers blooming and grass growing and so come the allergies that come from pollen spreading around also. You would think just the outside affects your allergies but did you know items inside your house can increase your allergies too. You might not have thought about but your mattress can harbor things that cause your allergies to act up.

Pillow Tops or Quilted Tops

Pillow tops or quilted tops can be one of the number one sources to attract dust mites. The top of the mattress, with the light fluffy filling can create nesting areas for dust mites. Dust mites are little and hard to see by the naked eye and they leave little poop behind which is the cause of people’s allergies. In order to help with your allergies its best to minimize your exposure to these things. Common reactions to dust mite feces include itching, sneezing and watery eyes. What happens is the dust accumulates in a coil mattress and then gets contaminated with dust mite feces. Kind of gross and annoying that this occurs with this top of mattress.
