Does it kills dust mites in bedding?

I have never tried it on dust mites, however, judging by the wide range of bacteria and germs that it does eradicate, I would assume so. Keep in mind that a degerminator cleans relatively small surface areas than have been contaminated with germs (work areas, children's toys, ear buds, lab supplies) you would need to get a UV light with a very large bulb to cover large areas-- or mites would simply move back into your degerminated area easily.

I returned the item because it only works on hard surfaces and I wanted it to work on cloth.

I am sorry I can't answer that question, we have never had dust mites in our bed.

Yes, as long as you don't walk over it. I use it under and around the perimeter of my bed. It's been 4 months since I started using it and I have not seen any single bed bug in the last month. It works but it takes time. It's not right away. Try not to walk on it barefoot. I find it itchy and you don't want to get the powder directly on top of the bed where you sleep. For additional information check out the youtube videos on Diatomaceous Earth. Good luck, I also used Ortho's Home Defense Bed Bud Killer cause it kills on contact and keeps killing for a few days after. Don't give up, be persistent wash your curtains and vacuum often.

I never used it to kill bed bugs. When I travel , I use a product called Ridd to spray the room and my suit case. Just being safe and eliminate the chance of bringing any back with me.

tea tree has been known to kill lice and remove ticks. I use it in helping with skin irritations such as sunburns and insect bites. my daughter uses it on her face to help clear up acne. I have never tried using it on bed bugs.

I thoroughly UV scanned my mattress and even though I could not see any mites, I think that it did. The UV scanners are good and I know that they do kill mold. I had a leather handbag that was covered with white mold/mildew and I cleaned it with a liquid cleaner that removed the mold/mildew but you could still smell it and I used the UV wand on it and it eliminated all odors and it remained mold/mildew free. Works good on shoes also.

I unpacked my new Wagner today and used the attachment with the cloth cover to clean mattresses and furniture. It dried immediately. I'm hoping the steam is hot enough with the cloth cover on to kill any dust mites. Does anybody know?

De-Mite is not a concentrate and you add 1 1/2 tablespoon to each load of wash. I usually do just my clothes and esp my bed linen for my allergies. I don't have to wash things in hot water when I use it to kill the dust mites

Great. My bedroom somehow was the dustiest in the house and now with the machine, it has reduced it by half. Good luck.

Sorry I'm so late in responding but I haven't checked my email in a while . I don't know that the product kills mites; it will kill fleas . My best recommendation would be to ask a vet for a good product .

In other words, the included cover is worthless and you need to use your own pillow cover. A damp cloth and mild detergent isn't going to kill dust mites.

Yes it will. Just spread it around where you know they are. It can kill bedbugs, ticks, ants, carpenter ants, termites, fleas. For bedbugs just put it around the bed posts at the floor. They cannot fly so they will have to walk in it. Do not breath it is the only warning. Chemical companies do not like it so they made the FDA and USDA keep this secret hush hush.

It did not work to well with bedbugs; so I doubt it will work well with dust mites... I would try to find something else

Well the description says it repels bed bugs. It will help repel pests, but it's not the end all and be all. If you have an infestation of bed bugs already, it's not going to eliminate them.

It works on Bedbugs which are very hard to get rid off, I would say one of the hardest. Once I sprayed it in a corners of the room and bed and mattress all kinds of bugs showed up dead. I would give it a try.

It does kill spider mites. It produces small amount of Ozone to kill any bacteria and microscopic organism. It also eliminates any cooking smell and bathroom odor. Run only few minutes until you smell ozone in the air. Ozone smells like mild bleach. Don't leave it on and leave the house unless the house is very large. I normally fog the house with insecticide to kill spider and mites.
