Dust Mites

So, I was just surfing and then reading about those awfully grotesque little creatures, called dust mites. They have 8 legs, males live 10-19 days and females around 70 days, and when they get together, the girlie can lay up to 60-100 eggs. You do the math.

They eat the skin cells that drop off our bodies and then poop in our beds and pillows, carpets and furniture. Nice, huh?

The good news is that washing all this stuff or freezing things kills the little bastards.

Personally, I think the Internet is a great discovery. Sometimes, I find things that I really don't need to know.

Gotta run for now and wash our linens!
