What's in the Box: Barrier Eliminates Dust Mite-Friendly Habitats More people have dust mite allergies than any other allergy. As you sleep, you shed millions of dead skin cells, providing dust mites with an unlimited food source. The proteins in their body parts and fecal particles are released into your mattress and bedding, causing allergies. The Allersoft 100-Percent Cotton Dust Mite & Allergy Control King Duvet Protector and Allersoft Cotton Dust Mite & Allergy Control Pillow Protector (sold separately) close off environments where dust mites thrive with tightly-woven cotton barriers that dust mites and allergen can't pass through.

Doctors recommend that people who suffer from dust mite allergies or asthma cover their mattress, box spring, and pillows to avoid breathing in allergens while they sleep. Locking Zipper Delivers Protection from Bed Bugs In addition to protection from dust mites, the Allersoft King Duvet Protector is made with a locking zipper system, which is designed to guard against bed bugs. An auto-locking zipper locks the zipper slide in place so that it won't leave small openings that bed bugs could sneak through, while an extra fabric shield under the zipper ensures that bed bugs will not be able to get in or out of the encasing.* *Independent lab tests have proven that bed bugs cannot pass or bite through this cover.

Running Shoes For Jumper'S KneeFrom rust-proof zippers to durable cotton fabric that can withstand an almost unlimited number of wash and dry cycles, these duvet covers are built to last. Vacuum the entire surface of the duvet encasing every 10 to 14 days to capture any allergens that may have settled on the surface.

For best results, use a HEPA vacuum or allergen-proof the vacuum bag.

The Allersoft Cotton Dust Mite & Allergy Control King Duvet Protector measures 86 by 106 inches (H x W) and fits king-sized duvets. You may want to measure your duvet before purchasing the protector to ensure a proper fit. Note that we add 2-3 percent at production for an initial, one time retraction of fibers that may shrink after the first washing. This retraction will actually result in an even smaller pore size.

How Does the Duvet Cover Protect Me From Dust Mites? The Allersoft Cotton Dust Mite & Allergy Control Duvet Protector features a super-tight weave that provides an impenetrable barrier to dust mites and other harmful allergens. As fibers are woven together to create a piece of fabric, the small openings where the fibers intersect are called pores. The tighter the fibers are woven together, the smaller the pore size, resulting in fewer materials (including animal dander and dust mite allergens) escaping into the environment. Doctors recommend a pore size of 6 microns or less to protect against dust mites and other allergens. This duvet protector has a mean flow pore size diameter of 3.44 microns. Can I Put This Cover on my Comforter and Use a Different Duvet on Top?Since the cover is very light, it will not add much weight if you choose to use a second duvet on top. Does This Cover Also Protect Me From Bed Bugs?This cover has been tested by an independent lab and the results show that bed bugs outside the encasing cannot get through to your pillow to hide or lay eggs, and any bed bugs inside the encasing cannot get out to reinfest your environment.

The duvet protector comes with a locking zipper system, which locks the zipper slide in place so the zipper cannot accidentally open. There is then an added barrier that closes the last inch or so of the zipper from below to create a fabric shield under the zipper closure to doubly ensure that bed bugs will not be able to get in or out of the encasing. Is This Duvet Cover Breathable? Yes, more so than any other product. Because the duvet cover is made from 100-percent pure cotton, and does not use any plastic or coatings, it does not store or radiate heat, so you stay cool and comfortable all night long. It has an air permeability reading of five, which indicates a highly breathable fabric. Is This Duvet Cover Machine-Washable?Washing is an important step in reducing allergens. When laundering, close the zipper and machine wash the encasing in warm water (or consider using an all-temperature laundry product especially formulated for allergy sufferers). Tumble dry at the lowest setting.
