How to remove mites

1. Pay attention to exfoliation. Exfoliation can help unclog the pores, which helps to expel the mites in the pores. However, it is difficult to remove the dead skin from the back by normal bathing methods. We can use some bathing tools, such as bath brushes and bath towels, to exfoliate and clean the back skin more comprehensively and thoroughly.

2. Sweating more. If there are too many mites in the pores, sweating more in daily life will help expel the mites. You can also participate in some sports appropriately, such as jogging, skipping rope, playing ball, etc., which can promote the excretion of mites and achieve the effect of exercise. Clean up promptly after exercising.

3. To remove body mites: (Do not use sulfur soap frequently) After washing with sulfur soap, wipe your face dry and do not use facial oil. Let your skin dry for a while, then wash your face with hot water (just enough to not feel hot). This will enlarge the pores on your face. You can then gently wash it with a facial cleanser and wash it every 2 days.

4. Mattresses are the things that have the most contact with the skin. There are also many mites on mattresses. Moreover, mattresses are too large, making it inconvenient to dry them in the sun at high temperatures, nor to freeze them in the refrigerator. Vacuum the mattress, sprinkle baking soda evenly on it, and pat it clean after a few hours.
