  • These pests are most commonly found in the sleeping areas of homes, including in pet beds
  • If your dog has a diagnosed dust mite allergy, there are many steps you’ll need to take to eliminate the pests from your environment and relieve your pet’s symptoms
  • One important step is to replace your dog’s bed with a safe, nontoxic pet bed made of organic materials like silk, since dust mites can’t survive in silk
