What is the best dust mite cover? Wow! We get that question many times a day. It is sort of like asking “what is the best flavor of ice cream?” It is all a matter of preference. My son loves cherry, I don’t. I love vanilla.
My daughter loves the satin feel of the fabric used to make our Bed Bug Mattress cover. It is not my favorite. I like either the Linen or the AllergyCare 100% Cotton.
The best dust mite cover is the cover that you find the most comfortable. If you are concerned about chemicals and want to support organic farmers, then the Certified Organic Cotton is the best dust mite cover for you.If you need something thin and lightweight that can stand up to frequent washing then the Pristine Luxury fabric is for you.
Every dust mite and bed bug proof mattress, duvet, and pillow cover we sell will give you protection against the common household allergens. These include dust mites and their feces, animal dander, molds, pollens and cockroach bits. If in addition to dust mite allergy protection, you need waterproof protection for the mattress, then you want a urethane coated fabric. The Linen or Bed Bug fabric would be best for you. The other fabrics do not offer waterproof protection, so they would not be the best.
When I help people choose a fabric, I ask them about the sheets that they like. If someone is an all cotton person, they won’t like the feel of the polyester fabrics. It doesn’t matter that Pristine has the smallest pore size, its not the best if you don’t like the way it feels so you take it off the bed.
Another consideration is how often you plan on washing your dust mite cover.. We recommend that you wash the covers at least once or twice a year. Some people just like to wash more often. The more you want to wash the cover, the more polyester you need in the fabric. For such a person, the Pristine Luxury is the best dust mite cover. If you want to wash often but need the feel of cotton, the AllerSoft Cotton Blend is the best dust mite cover.
Another consideration is fabric price. If Certified Organic Cotton is out of your price range, then it is not the best dust mite cover for you.
To sum it up, the best dust mite cover is one that meets your needs for washing, is pleasing to your touch, and fits in your budget. As for the ice cream, I’ll take a single scoop of vanilla in a cup please.
