Investing in mattress covers can save hundreds of dollars
What really disturbed me, was reading about the dust mites. I had never given much thought to what “don’t let the bed bugs bite” meant, but suddenly, the mere thought of that phrase gave me the creepy crawlies. Reading about them and how many can be in your bed at any given time absolutely repulsed me. I vowed to wash my sheets much more often than I already do. However, mattress covers definitely help to aid in keeping the dust mites from posing too much of a problem. Mites may not be able to breed as easily or readily when mattress pads are present. It doesn’t allow them the kind of atmosphere that they crave. Also being able to wash or lightly clean our mattress covers is especially important for those suffering from allergies and can reduce the symptoms of allergic rhinitis or asthma. That was plenty of reason for me to keep this cover on long after my baby arrives. She would always have one as well.
