Our White Mountain Textiles Cotton dust mite mattress covers are some of the nicest we have felt and are very reasonably priced. The cotton fabric is soft and lightweight and offers a very small pore size 4.39 micron which is excellent for a woven dust mite cover. A dust mite cover with a small pore size like this is a very efficient barrier to dust mites and their allergens (i.e. broken body parts and feces). One of my favorite things about these mattress covers is they are discrete and quiet, so your family and guests will never know you have dust mite covers on unless they peak under the sheets. A cotton dust mite cover is also very breathable and will not retain excess heat while sleeping. They are easy to wash with durable construction; however, we do not recommend washing more than absolutely necessary due to the fact that woven fabrics loosen with wear and tear which will increase the pore size and reduce their effectiveness. Also, though many times less likely than synthetic covers to cause irritation, these are not organic and could possible cause irritation to those who have multiple chemical sensitivities or super sensitive skin. If you are concerned about possible irritation, it is probably in your favor to spend a little more and purchase our
Solus Organic Cotton Dust Mite Covers.
