Dust Mite Control Services in Nairobi and Surrounding Areas
Dust mites are microscopic pests that thrive in mattresses, carpets, upholstered furniture, curtains, and bedding. While invisible to the naked eye, they can cause major problems for allergy sufferers, people with asthma, and those with sensitive skin.
In Nairobi and surrounding areas, dust mite infestations are a common yet often overlooked problem due to the warm, humid climate and urban lifestyle. Their presence can lead to sneezing, coughing, runny noses, itchy skin, and even respiratory issues.
At Nairobi Pest Control, we provide safe, thorough, and effective dust mite removal and prevention services for both homes and businesses, ensuring your indoor spaces are fresh, clean, and allergen-free.
Understanding the Dust Mite Problem in Nairobi
Dust mites feed on tiny flakes of human skin shed daily and thrive in warm, humid environments. They are often concentrated in:
- Mattresses and bedding
- Sofas and armchairs
- Carpets and rugs
- Curtains and fabric blinds
- Stuffed toys and cushions
They are not parasites they don’t bite humans but their waste products and body fragments trigger allergic reactions and worsen respiratory conditions.
Areas like Kilimani, Westlands, Lavington, Karen, South C, Parklands, and Thika Road estates are more prone to dust mite problems because of soft furnishing use and indoor climate conditions.
Signs of a Dust Mite Infestation
Because they are microscopic, you won’t see dust mites, but you may notice:
- Increased sneezing, nasal congestion, or watery eyes indoors.
- Worsening asthma or allergy symptoms at home or in the office.
- Itchy skin or mild rashes.
- Coughing or breathing difficulties in certain rooms.
- A musty smell from old bedding, carpets, or upholstery.
