This is one of the primary symptoms of a Spider Mite allergy. The allergens from the mites cause an allergic reaction leading to the skin becoming inflamed and itchy, often leading to scratching and further irritation.
Another common symptom is repeated sneezing coupled with an itchy or runny nose. The allergens can cause irritation in the nasal passage leading to these symptoms.
You may experience redness and itching in the eyes, a condition often known as allergic conjunctivitis. This happens due to the allergens irritating the conjunctiva, the membrane covering the white part of the eyes.
Spider mite allergens can cause hives, which are raised, itchy, red welts on the skin. They may appear unexpectedly and can happen anywhere on the body.
In some cases, exposure to spider mites can trigger an allergic asthma attack leading to shortness of breath, tightness in the chest, and wheezing.
Some people may experience swelling of the lips, tongue or throat as a result of an allergic reaction to spider mites. This should be treated as a medical emergency as it can restrict breathing.
Recognize your symptoms?
Identifying a spider mites allergy entails acknowledging common allergic symptoms and then ruling out other potential causes to ascertain spider mites as the source. Here are the steps you should take to determine an allergy to spider mites.
Recognizing Allergic Symptoms
Identify Potential Sources
In case of an apparent allergic response, try to identify potential sources in your environment. Since spider mites are tiny pests feeding on plants, likely sources could be your houseplants, gardens, and green spaces around your home.
Rule Out Other Allergens
Several symptoms of spider mites’ allergy are common to numerous other allergies. To ascertain spider mites as the source, you need to rule out other common allergens. You might need to consider other allergens such as dust mites, pollen, or pet dander.
Get an Allergy Test
If your symptoms persist, and you are unable to clearly identify the source, you should consider getting an allergy test done. A skin test or blood test can help in identifying specific allergens, including spider mites.
It's crucial to consult with your doctor if you feel you might have an allergy in order to receive a proper diagnosis and treatment.

Stay away from areas known to have Spider Mites, especially if you have faced allergy symptoms due to them in the past. These pests are common in gardens, greenhouses, and other plant-heavy environments, so try to minimize your exposure to such areas.
When going into potentially infested areas, ensure to wear long sleeves, gloves, and other covering clothing. Protective clothing can help prevent skin contact with Spider Mites, reducing the chances of an allergic reaction.
Regularly cleaning your home can keep it free from Spider Mites. Vacuum, dust, and wash surfaces frequently, especially in rooms with houseplants. Pay extra attention to your plants too, as Spider Mites can live in them.
If you are highly allergic to Spider Mites and have a high population of these pests in your area, it might be wise to invest in professional pest control services. They can effectively exterminate Spider Mites and provide you with advice on keeping them away in the future.
