Speaking of winter in Japan, Kotatsu

It's almost New Year's Day.。How do you spend your time?
There may be people who spend the New Year slowly in Kotatsu without going far.
Even if you live with your family、Even if you live alone、Go into Kotatsu and watch TV、Eating tangerines、I think it's a little sloppy, but I fall asleep because I lose to the comfort.。
Because Kotatsu gives family reunion and peace of mind.、It's one of the most popular heating appliances.。
however、There is a drawback that garbage and dust tend to accumulate in and around the kotatsu.。

In fact, there are a lot of mites lurking in the dust.

When I examined the dust collected by the vacuum cleaner of a general household、In a teaspoonful of dust、The results show that an average of 500 ~ 2000 ticks have been found to die.。
The ticks that are common in the home are chili mites、Death and dung are the causative agents of allergic diseases.。
I want to relax with a kotatsu、It doesn't feel good to think that there are ticks.。
How do you deal with kotatsu mites?

How to deal with kotatsu mites?

How to reduce kotatsu mites、Frequent cleaning is important。
The carpet under the kotatsu is vacuumed frequently.。
Dust dust where mites lurk and、Dandruff and dirt on people and pets that serve as food for mites、Try not to leave food debris etc.。

Kotatsu futon is sun-dried on a sunny day、Using a futon dryer, etc.、Reduces humidity。
The tick multiplies with a humidity of more than 60% in the room、50%If the following persists, they will eventually die.。Has the effect of reducing the number of ticks by reducing humidity。
Because it seems that the kotatsu futon also has a lot of moisture、Let it dry as much as possible。

After drying、Be sure to vacuum。
Although reducing the humidity reduces the number of live mites、Death and dung will be left on the futon。
1m on both sides of the front and back sides of the futon2Spend about 20 seconds per unit to vacuum slowly.。
Get rid of allergen death and dung。

You may feel troublesome because it is only a steady method。But "anti-tick measures、1It is not made into a day."。1Unfortunately, there is no magic way to be perfect if you do it all the time.。

With frequent measures、Please enjoy a comfortable winter kotatsu life。
