As students prepare for a new school year, the excitement of moving into a dorm can sometimes overshadow an important consideration: protecting your living space from bed bugs and dust mites. These tiny invaders can cause discomfort and health issues, so taking steps to prevent their presence is crucial. Here’s why bed bug and dust mite prevention matter and how Premo Guard can help you maintain a clean and comfortable dorm environment.
Why Bed Bug and Dust Mite Prevention Matters
Bed bugs and dust mites are not just a nuisance; they can significantly impact your well-being. Bed bugs are known for their itchy bites and potential allergic reactions. They are adept at hiding in the seams of mattresses, behind headboards, and within furniture, making them difficult to spot and remove once they’ve settled in.
Dust mites, on the other hand, thrive in warm, humid environments and feed on dead skin cells. They can trigger allergies and asthma, leading to sneezing, coughing, and other respiratory issues. Both bed bugs and dust mites can create an uncomfortable living situation and add unnecessary stress to your school life.

Tips for Bed Bug and Dust Mite Prevention
- Inspect Your Dorm Room Regularly: Upon moving in, and periodically afterward, check for signs of bed bugs. Look for reddish-brown stains on your mattress or bed frame and inspect cracks and crevices for any signs of pests.
- Use Premo Guard Regularly: Apply the bed bug and mite spray to your mattress, bed frame, and any other potential hiding spots. Regular application will help keep your space free from pests.
- Maintain Clean Bedding: Wash your bed linens and pillowcases weekly in hot water, adding the Premo Guard Laundry Additive to kill dust mites and remove allergens. This helps keep your bedding fresh and allergen-free.
- Vacuum Frequently: Regularly vacuum your dorm room, especially areas where dust can accumulate, such as carpets, rugs, and upholstered furniture. This helps remove dust mites and their food sources.
- Keep Humidity in Check: Dust mites thrive in humid conditions. Use a dehumidifier or air conditioner to maintain a low humidity level in your dorm room, ideally between 30-50%.
- Inspect Second-Hand Items: If you’re bringing second-hand furniture or bedding into your dorm, treat these items with Premo Guard Bed Bug and Mite Spray before use to ensure they are free from pests.
