Anti-Allergen Cleaning Products for Allergy Relief

Maintaining a clean environment should be the #1 concern for allergy sufferers! Frequent cleaning helps to keep dust mites, dust, animal dander, pollen, mold, mildew and other allergens to a minimum and reduces your allergy symptoms. Unfortunately, cleaning can be difficult for those with multiple chemical sensitivities, since many cleaners contain harsh chemicals and irritating smells. Our cleaning products are designed especially for MCS and allergy suffers, so that you can clean with products that are safe, effective, and gentle – free of harsh chemicals and odors.
 

Allergy Carpet Cleaning

Many experts agree that minimal or no carpeting is the best option for allergy sufferers, largely because dust mites thrive in carpets. But tearing up carpeting is not always desirable or feasible. Fortunately, there are products specifically designed to combat dust mites living not only in carpets, but also in upholstered furniture. These products come in a few different forms: Allersearch X-Mite is a powder that you sprinkle on carpets and rub in, leaving it sitting for three hours before you vacuum it up; The Ecology Works DustMite and Flea Control is also a powder, but to use it, you mix it with water and spray; Anti-Allergen Solution is a plant-based formula that denatures protein allergens on contact.

Dust Mite Control: Bedding

Another favorite hideout of dust mites is bedding. Dust mites love to inhabit pillows and mattresses because of the constant supply of dead skin cells that you provide them as you sleep. It's no surprise that your bedding gets filled with dust mite allergen pretty quickly. We recommend washing your bedding once a week using an anti-allergen laundry products such as the de-mite Laundry Additive, Allersearch Allergen Wash, or the Anti-Allergen Laundry Detergent, all of which may be used even in cold water to effectively rid bedding and other washables (such as your child's favorite stuffed animal) of dust mite allergen.

Allergy Free Cleaning with Natural Household Cleaning Products

It's important for those with allergies to keep their homes as clean as possible, but, ironically, many traditional cleaning products contain chemicals that aggravate allergies and asthma. Begley's Best Natural Cleaning Products and EcoDiscoveries Natural Cleaning Products are the solution. With their natural formulations free of added dyes, fragrances, and harmful chemicals, these products won't leave behind harmful fumes or residues.

Mold Cleaning Products

Mold and mildew are potent allergy triggers and pose serious health risks if left unchecked. In addition to cleaning mold with products like M-1 House Wash All Purpose Cleaner, Vital Oxide Mold Remover and Disinfectant, or MoldZyme® Mold & Mildew Remover, take steps to prevent mold growth in the first place. M-1 Sure Cote Mold and Mildew Resistant Sealant and Allersearch AllerMold are mold and mildew resistant coatings, while Vital Oxide inhibits mold formation for up to seven months.

Natural Odor Eliminators

Traditional home fragrance products or odor eliminators are among the worst culprits when it comes to contaminating indoor air. Many air fresheners contain chemicals that temporarily numb the nose so that offensive odors aren't detected; or synthetic fragrances filled with phthalates, a toxic chemical, mask odors rather than eliminating them. There are safer alternatives, however, such as the Pet Odor Eliminator, the Basement & Garage Odor Eliminator, and the Smoke Odor Eliminator which use volcanic minerals to attract and hold unpleasant odors. The Pet Crystal similarly absorbs odors naturally, and can also be used to absorb odors in refrigerators, diaper pails, sports bags, and more. The AllerAir Tub O' Carbon Odor Buster uses activated carbon to absorb odors without masking them, and AirZyme™ is a spray that eliminates odors without polluting indoor air.

Cleaning Without Chemicals

Although using natural cleaning products minimizes indoor air pollution, there are instances where you can avoid using cleaning products altogether. For instance, Dust Cloths allow you to capture dust and dirt easily without using any kind of spray, and using a Glass Cleaning Cloth gives you sparkling glass without using any sprays. Gonzo sponges are also great at lifting allergens such as pollen, pet air, and dust from various surfaces; choose from the Pet Hair Lifter, the Dust Control Sponge, the Wonder Sponge, and the Lampshade Sponge to wipe away allergy triggers. Steam Cleaners are also an excellent way to get floors clean without using any harsh chemicals. The Reliable T1 Steamboy Mop enables you to clean and sanitize hardwood, tile, marble, and more - all with the power of vapor steam.
