Perhaps I shouldn't admit this, but ever since I bought a goose down comforter and started using a duvet cover, I haven't washed my comforter once. Then I made the mistake of watching the Oprah Winfrey Show on Labor Day. Did anyone see that? Film of millions of dust mites moving around. x( They live in fabric and feed on bits of your dead skin and hair. x( I told my DH that this weekend we're going to take down the curtains in the bedroom and throw them away. Then I'm going to wash the comforter and the pillows in very hot water.
My DH says I'm overreacting. Dust mites can't actually harm you unless you're allergic to them, which I don't think we are. But I can't deal with the idea of sharing my bed with millions of nasty little critters. x( x( x(
They said you need to wash your comforter and pillow every 2 weeks (NOT just the sheets and pillow cases)!!! Does anyone here wash their comforter and pillows?
