Get Rid of Dust
Dust mites reside in the dust and can easily trigger allergic reactions. By dusting, you will be eliminating the places where these allergens find their food. When dusting, you can use a treated or damp cloth so as to trap the dust instead of scattering it back into the air. You may also want to wear a dust mask to shield yourself from these allergens as you clean.
Eliminating Mold and Mildew
You can prevent mildew and mold from growing on surfaces, such as in your bathrooms, by using mold resistant paint and dehumidifying these areas regularly to eliminate the moisture and dampness.
Vacuum Your Home
Dust can settle on the floor, but there is also dirt and other particles that collect on the floor.Carpets and furniture are some of the areas that you should concentrate on when vacuuming your home. The best vacuum that will not send particles in the air but rather traps them is a HEPA-filtered vacuum. This traps even the smallest particles leaving your surfaces clean and dust free.
Use Low VOC Cleaning Products
Whenever you are cleaning your home ensure that you use chemicals that do not contain harsh chemicals. This is because the harsh chemicals that are present in some of the cleaning detergents can cause allergic reactions.
