People with a dust mite allergy often experience frequent sneezing and a constantly runny or stuffy nose. This is due to the body's immune response trying to get rid of what it sees as harmful particles.
Another common symptom is having red, itchy, or watery eyes. This is also a result of the body's immune response, characterized by inflammation and irritation in the eyes.
Coughing is a common reaction to the dust mite allergen. This is because the dust particles can easily be inhaled, causing irritation in the respiratory tract leading to a persistent cough.
Dust mite allergies can also lead to skin reactions such as itchiness, rashes, and patches of eczema. Contact with dust mites or their waste products can provoke this uncomfortable response.
Some people may experience difficulty breathing, wheezing, or even asthma attacks. These symptoms are most prominent when the individual is sleeping or just woke up from sleep.
Postnasal drip occurs when excess mucus builds up in the back of the throat and nose. It's often accompanied by a persistent feeling of mucus trickling from the back of your nose into your throat, and can cause a frequent urge to clear the throat.

Reducing the amount of carpet in your home can significantly decrease dust mite populations. These organisms thrive in carpeting as it provides a perfect environment for their growth. Consider replacing carpet floors with wood, tile, or linoleum surfaces which are easier to keep dust-free.
Dust mites love humidity and flourish in warm, moist environments. Using a dehumidifier to maintain a relative humidity below 50% in your home can make it less hospitable to dust mites, thus reducing their population.
One of the most effective ways to avoid dust mite allergies is to use allergen-resistant covers on mattresses, pillows, and duvets. These covers are made of a material that dust mites cannot penetrate, thus reducing your exposure to them.
Regular washing of beddings, rugs, and soft furnishings can kill dust mites and remove the allergens they produce. It's particularly effective when you wash these items in hot water at a temperature of at least 60 degrees Celsius.
