如何对付尘螨

1.去除地毯和厚重窗帘。
避免使用地毯、榻榻米等,改采用木质、瓷砖地板,以免造成藏污纳垢的死角,让尘螨有机可居;而厚重的窗帘布容易滋生尘螨,最好改以百叶窗或塑料遮板代替,若必须使用窗帘,也请常常拆下清洗。
  
2.避免绒毛玩具。
毛茸茸的绒毛玩具也是尘螨喜欢藏身之处,除了不要再购买之外,也最好丢弃家中原有的。

3.保持环境整洁。
灰尘中尘螨的含量惊人,避免尘螨附着滋生,一定要养成定期打扫的习惯,时时保持居家环境的清洁。   

4.室内避免饲养宠物。
家中如有饲养猫、狗等宠物,最好安置在户外,以免掉落的皮毛与排泄分泌物滋长尘螨,引发过敏。

5.加强通风。 
不通风的环境有助尘螨生存,居家环境最好定时开启窗户,促进空气对流,移除累积在室内的过敏原。
  
6.控制温度和湿度。
25℃~30℃、相对湿度60%~80%的黑暗空间是尘螨的最爱,而在相对湿度到达50%以下则无法生存,所以居家理想的湿度指标应控制在40~50%,春夏湿热季节最好使用除湿机以维持最佳的温湿度。
  
7.使用滤网和空气清净机。
季节转换时最容易引发过敏,除了温湿度的调节控制之外,最好在空调加装滤网或使用空气清净机,清除空气中的尘螨尸体与排泄物,以免在密闭的空气循环中飘散引发过敏。

8.善用阳光。 
尘螨有“见光死”的避光性,必须在光线所不及的黑暗地区才能生长。善用最好也最天然的杀螨剂,可以定期让家中的寝具或是布质面家具在阳光下曝晒(尘螨在高于50度的环境下无法生存),每次6小时以上效果会更好。

9.冲烫清洗。
尘螨为水溶性过敏原,对于家中的布质陈设以及衣物,定期采用水洗可以有效清除尘螨,洗涤时最好先以55℃以上的热水烫过,或是洗后热烘及熨烫处理,效果会更好。

10.使用防螨寝具。 
寝具是尘螨寄生的大本营,家人若有较严重的过敏患者,除了防螨招数要周到,最好解决之道还是选用防螨寝具,而防螨寝具的选择除了防螨效力之外,透气舒适性也不能忽视,如市面上某些以化剂淋膜或是两层贴合的产品,不仅让人闷热难眠,翻动时还会沙沙作响,选购防螨寝具时务必谨慎分辨。
