I stole the title from a webpage as it was just too perfect. Rachael Ray had a lady on today talking about the dust mite. Now she said to replace your bed every 5-7 years because they just get so ‘into’ the mattress, especially loading it with their droppings! Ugh! She also said pillows should be replaced every 1-3 years. She weighed one that was 3 yrs old and compared it to a new one-the old one weighed 8 ounces more.
I thought you should replace your mattress every 10 yrs, which we try to do. Some people never buy a new one! So come on-just imagine all the dust mite poo you are sleeping on top of! Ugh! At least enclose your mattress in plastic as that should help.

I can’t begin to say how horrifying this post is to me Dianne! UGH! I have a serious bug phobia!
Eeeeeewl! That is disgusting. I think I’ll sleep on the floor from now on. At least ou can move around there, you know, find a clean spot every day.
Your RR has arrived, by the way. And, without wanting to give too much away, it’s gor-ge-ous!
Oh, YUCK!!! I probably won’t be having sweet dreams tonight!
Ok now I’m creeped right out and don’t want to go to bed!! lol Actually, I had heard about this but who can afford to buy a new bed every 3 years?! Glad we can’t see the darn things! lol
