Sleep tight and don't let the bed bugs bite

Ever woken up with a runny nose, itchy watery eyes, or a skin disorder you could not explain? You might be like the millions of Australians suffering each year from an allergic reaction to dust mites. Those microscopic relatives of spiders thrive inside our pillows, quilts and mattresses, feeding on the skin flakes we constantly shed. Their allergenic faecal pellets are so small that they get easily airborne and – when inhaled - can cause symptoms associated with an allergic reaction or even an asthma attack.

Children are especially susceptible to a dust mite allergy. It has been clinically proven that exposure in early childhood to dust-mite allergens is an important determinant of the subsequent development of Asthma1.

Mite Guard RX’s unique texture “Protex” has been specially designed in response to the demand for effective, comfortable and economical allergy barrier bedding. The material consists of an extremely fine micron dust filter, sandwiched between two polypropylene layers (polypropylene being one of the most inert fibres known to man).

Mite Guard Rx range offers 4 advantages:
1) Economical – you don’t have to change your bed linen. Mite Guard Rx are designed to fully encase your existing mattress, quilt or pillow and will allow for the use of your preferred natural filling such as wool or feathers.
2) Safe – clinically tested and proven effective in reducing exposure to allergens.
3) Protex is a unique design produced in Australia and
4) Easy to maintain - eliminates the need for “hot washing’.

The Mite Guard Rx protection is available for the most common sizes of mattresses, quilts and pillows. It can also be custom made following the consumer’s desires.

So, for quiet nights and a fresh morning, MiteGuard Rx is the answer, for the entire family!
