I’m reading Stephen King’s The Dark Half right now and I keep imagining George Stark as the blonde guy

zenbhang, in It's like everyday

Used to always have clogged nostrils when going to bed.

But when I slept at hotels I never had a clogged nose.

Turns out I was just allergic to dust mites.

Bought anti-dustmite sheets / spray and boom, no longer had clogged nostrils in bed.

Pulptastic,

Where did you get anti dustmite sheets? I looked a few years back and all I could find were $200 medical covers that were basically plastic bags and 1000 different ones on Amazon with 1* durability reviews. I would love to have a “legit” source and maybe some info on expectations.

zenbhang,

Hmm I bought these and had no problems at all:

UltraBlock Zippered Mattress Protector (Queen) - Waterproof Cover Stops Dust Mite, Bed Bug, Spills, Bedwetting - Hypoallergenic Encasement with Zipper - White a.co/d/594j8Rh

Dust Mite and Allergen Proof Pillow Encasing (Cover); Premium Microfiber (Standard Size) a.co/d/8NZkbyT

Pricing for both combined being less than $50

Yamainwitch,

Hello new paranoia! What can be done with my existing things to get rid of the mites???

The solution to everything really

Yamainwitch,

I won’t let those big bastards win!

loie,

Dust and vacuum, often. And with a bagged HEPA sealed vacuum. Vacuum wars YouTube channel does good recommendations at all price points.

Yamainwitch,

I was legit thinking about getting a bagged vacuum but didn’t because there’s too many options and I got stuck in that analysis paralysis. Thanks for the recommendation, there really is a YouTube channel for everything!

Anti-dustmite spray helps kill a good amount! I was actually impressed with how fast it worked.

That and getting dust mite sheet covers for both your mattress and pillows is effective and over time will kill them off.

My initial steps I took were:

  • taking bed sheets and pillow covers to the washing machine
  • applying anti-dustmite cover to mattress
  • applying anti-dustmite cover to pillows
  • putting bed sheets and pillow covers over the anti-dustmite covers
  • spraying the anti-dustmite spray over and letting dry

Immediately noticed the difference and stopped getting a clogged nose in bed that day

Yamainwitch,

Thanks for the game plan! I’m legit cleaning out the bedrooms this weekend and will give this a try. I had the same experience with hotels but I was like “I guess my nose just, like, really loves that bleach smell.” 😆

figaro,

This is worth a shot. I’ll try it

zenbhang, (edited )

I recommend getting both the anti-dustmite sheets and pillow covers as well as the spray!

A combination of all 3 legit stopped giving me a clogged nose at night immediately.

Yep, never thought I had allergies. I was prescribed an antihistamine for a sleep disorder, and noticed this doesn’t happen to me when I take antihistamines.

appel, in Sad look

OP, if this is OC, do you like BirdBuddy? I was considering it as a Christmas gift.

Ejh3k,

We’ve had issues with ours. Spent like two months working with them trying to get ours set up to work on our wifi. They ended up sending us a new unit, and it’s worked great since. But we mostly just get sparrows.

appel,

I appreciate the input, thanks!

surewhynotlem, in Is that being too kind?

How DARE you disrespect Gary Oldman like that

TWeaK,

I think if Gary Oldman played Musk he’d look much more like Musk. Dude somehow manages to change his face so well.

surewhynotlem,

He’s a chameleon. I always have to look up what characters he plays because I can’t picture it.

Duranie,

It took me far too long to realize he played Drexel in True Romance. Like, that’s one of my favorite movies and it took several watches and seeing his name in the credits to catch it. The Professional was amazing too (which is where Drexel’s wig came from lol. )
