Until tested which can be a tedious process of elimination. And in that process multiple possibles can be identified. For the sufferer it then becomes a difficult process to know which such allergenic triggers are primary prevalent. But yes, dust mites are very common. And often people who declare an allergy to domestic pets are actually allergic to the dust mites they have in their hair or fur. Yet allergies are not simplistic or even understood. Consider the problem of those women who "apparently" are allergic to the semen of their husbands. 14 minutes ago, unblocktheplanet said: Does anyone here have dust mite allergy?
