Cleaning your mattress protector
If you want to buy a mattress protector that is good for those affected by allergies, it is a good idea to choose one made of latex. Latex is a natural, high-density material that makes it harder for dust mites to survive. But even with a latex mattress, there is no guarantee that your sleeping environment will be completely free of dust mites. The most effective method for keeping dust mite allergies in check is to have both a mattress topper and a mattress protector with a removable cover that can tolerate frequent washings at 60°C.
