Comment on Best Dust Mask for Trail Riding by Just Me

The problem I see, and have been trying to find a dust mask to correct, is that a good pair of goggles goes over the nose bridge, and a mask like this would create a “double” nose bridge cover conflict. In other words, either the goggles wouldn’t fit right, or the mask wouldn’t. I use goggles similar to those in the above photo.

Comment on Afraid of Dust Mites? We’ve Got You Covered by Mari

If I wear a pajama that has been stored in my drawer for a while when I put it in I get itchy. I’ve always thought it was because of dust mites. Is it really? My pillows, comforter and mattress are covered in dust mite proof covers. Is there anything I can do for my drawers?
I usually run my ph’s in the dryer for a couple of minutes before I wear them and that takes care of the problem. Nevertheless, I’d like to know if there is a drawer liner or a spray that I could put in my drawers. Thanks.

Comment on Open Window Policy? Windows and Allergies by Rafo

I moved from Baltimore to Santa Fe about 7 years ago. Allergies out here are a little dffeirent so its hard to say what you will be sensitive to. My wife who never had allergies gets crippled for a week or so every year when the Juniper first blooms. Depending on who you believe,the Juniper that blooms here is the same as the Cedar that blooms in TX and AZ, regardless there does seem to be a great deal of overlap in sensitivites.In town there are much fewer trees and the building canyons tend to blow pollen out in fairly short order but there is still an uncomfortable period (late Feb thru early Mar) but not as bad as out here where we live surrounded by acres of Junipers. I had mild hayfever/ragweed issues in MD but out here I get a little Juniper discomfort but get hit hard by Chamisa a little pale green bush with yellow flowers, I actually call it ragweed of the desert’ and it is no fun. It can bloom almost anytime it isn’t below freezing and peaks after spring melt and our monsoon season (Sept) with 2 pretty large blooms a year.All in all the air quality is significantly better for me (I have chronic weak lungs from lots of childhood pneumonia), but my allergies are worse and my wife’s are a LOT worse. Another issue here is UV, we are close to 7000 feet depending on where you live (a couple hundred feet in either direction) and that surprises a lot of people when they visit.

I have had one of your wool mattress pads on our bed for several years now and we love it. I t is the one with wool on one side and cotton on the other. Wish you would have had a washable one back when we got ours.
