Are you serious?? Your recommendations are just AVOIDING the problem. You think it’s crazy?? You say to attack the cause of the allergy.. Umm, the cause of this particular allergy is dust mites soo how would avoiding getting rid of dust and mites and focusing on “taking homeopathy” or anything else help? You should not be giving advice since you obviously are speaking from personal opinion with no professional background . You use “NAET” therapy but you still have allergies.. Wow, great advice!! Don’t listen to natrummur, there are plenty of studies that show how filthy indoor air and dust can be… This person is obviously not getting the point… And milk only causes allergies when it is processed and taken from crowded cows with poor conditions. Raw, non-pasturized, non- homogenized, small scale fresh milk is one of natures most complete foods… Raw milk doesn’t even cause lactose-intolerance! All the studies on milk that show irritants and allergies have used HOMOGENIZED AND PASTEURIZED milk so of course the studies will say how “bad” milk is.

Diatomaceous earth works really well getting rid of these. We have 3 dogs, several cats, birds, etc. (we foster animals and are part of a rescue shelter). Once a month, we sprinkle DE over the carpets, take the day off to go do something fun, come home and vacuum. Since DE doesn’t harm people or animals (only bugs), it does a great job eliminating the problem. It also absorbs odors, so it helps a little that way too.

It is truly annoying to have dust mites affect your home and cause allergy after all. I guess it is best practice to prevent it beforehand.. thanks for good info.

I used to have a dog and until I gave it away, I just couldn’t get rid of the dust mites. Wish I would have tried all the advices here.

I’m allergy to dust mites and it’s crazy to follow your recommendations. I recommend to attack the reasons why you have the allergy.

1.- Try the NAET therapy: http://www.naeteurope.com/composite-11.htm. I’ve really improved a lot with this therapy, the problem is that I’m allergic to almost everything, and I’ve been following this therapy already for a year and still there’s some things that make me allergy.

2.- Improve your diet avoiding milk products, gluten products, and histamine containing products (chocolate, some non fresh fish, etc). Make you a test (ImuPro for example) to know your food intolerances.

3.- Eat anti-allergy food: orange and vitamine C products, sweet potato, onion, etc.

4.- Treat your allergy with homeopathy, both for a long term recovery with psore-like remedies and the acute attack with histaminum, allium cepa, etc.
