Dust mites and their dander are a prevalent cause of indoor allergies. However, their microscopic size makes it a tough challenge to tell just how bad your dust mite problem is throughout the home. Our Dust Mite Screen Check includes an easy-to-use kit for collecting dust mites from a test surface. The collected specimen is then evaluated by an AIHA Accredited lab to determine the concentration of dust mite allergens in the home. Once you find out if you have a dust mite problem you can then take the necessary steps to take control. These Dust Mite Kits are also handy to have in the home in order to ensure that the dust mite problem does not occur again.
