don't make your bed!

do you make your bed after you wake up ?

I have a good news for people with asthma .

Their resarch suggests that the dust mites that live in our mattresses do not like messy and unmade beds .

The research team, from Kingston University , said the tiny bugs could only survive in sheets and mattresses that were slightly damp - they live off the moisture and sweats from our bodies .

If a bed is unmade , air circulates between the sheets and dries them out . Dry sheets means the creatures will die from dehydration - a lack of water .The researchers said that the average bed contained around 1.5 milion mites . The are less then a millinetre long and they feed on the flakes of skin that fall from your body .

don't tell your children about this research :) :) :)
