Hi guys, I've been having severe atopic eczema (itchy dry skin from allergy) for maybe 1 or 2 years already. I am still exploring ways to avoid the allergens that cause my skin condition. I went to BP diagnostic for blood test and it showed that I am very allergic to dust mites, so I'm looking at dust mite pillow and mattress covers now.

The question is: Does anyone have experience using these covers? If so what brand and where did you buy it?

I searched around in rakuten / mudah etc and saw one brand called Demitze. Looks like got positive feedback on their anti dust mite sprays, but their website http://demitze.com/index.html looks so simple and lack of certification...

These stuff aren't cheap, so I wanted to ask if anyone can shed some light on this before I start buying them.

Thanks in advance! I'm desperate to get rid of this skin problem.. It's really ruining my life. sad.gif

other methods:

1) buy a good vacuum, vacuum your bed and surrounding once a week

2) change your bed sheet and pillow cover regularly, like once a week

3) change your mattress every few years.

4) consider to make your house or room fully air-conditioned, without open windows and some good air-cond, the room will have very few dust.

5) if you ever buy dust mite cover, remember it must be breathable ... else it will worsen your skin condition. (but the price will not be that cheap)
