Dust Mite Control

MiniJumbuk wool bedding products are highly effective in controlling dust mite populations. With MiniJumbuk premium quality Australian made bedding you’ll have a cleaner, more refreshing sleep every night. This is because of the exceptional design and treatment of our bedding materials. They offer all the benefits of natural fibres, and feature fine, down-proof casings and an exceptional blend of wools. They are designed to remain comfortable over a wide range of temperatures and to combat the increase of dust mites.

MiniJumbuk quilts, underlays and pillows all feature Ultra-Fresh, a highly effective anti-fungal and anti-bacterial process. This prevents dust mites from successfully colonising the bedding. In fact, Ultra-Fresh provides hygienic freshness that lasts the lifetime of the product.   The effectiveness of Ultra-Fresh is one reason why MiniJumbuk products have been accepted by the National Asthma Council Australia in their Sensitive Choice program (see www.sensitivechoice.com.au for further information). 

Surrounding yourself with a variety of MiniJumbuk products ensures a healthy and comfortable sleep every night, and their dust mite-resistant properties make them a great choice for people with concerns about asthma and allergies.

In independent tests, MiniJumbuk wool bedding products have been shown to be effective in controlling dust mite populations, even when the quilts, pillows and underlays are deliberately infested with breeding pairs of the creatures. By treating MiniJumbuk bedding products with Ultra-Fresh, dust mites are deprived of their food source, and this prevents them from successfully colonising the bedding.

Tests conducted by an independent testing authority (AATCC Test Method 194-2006),  involved ‘seeding’ new and used MiniJumbuk products, plus competitor and control items, each with 25 breeding pairs of dust mites. They were then supplied with a food source and kept in a suitable breeding environment for 6 weeks.  The results are shown in the graph below:
