At present, there are many brands and models of mite removal instruments on the market, which has brought trouble to everyone's purchase, and the purchase of a mite removal instrument suitable for their own needs has become a problem.
First, the understanding before purchasing.
1. Understand the Xi of mites.
Mites are usually divided into several categories, such as dust mites, powder mites, leather mites, chigger mites, etc., and about 97% are infected with mites, mainly dust mitesIt is made up of 80% water and 20% protein, and the body size is generally 0About 5 mm, some as small as 01 mm, most species are less than 1 mm, which is invisible to the naked eye, mainly distributed in: carpets, bedding, sofas, blankets and other places.
The optimal temperature for the breeding and survival of dust mites is 15 35, and the optimal humidity is 55% 75%, and the elimination of live mites can be removed with high or low temperature, which deteriorates their living environment.
However, the corpses, secretions and excretions of mites are allergens, which can cause allergic dermatitis, asthma, bronchitis, nephritis, allergic rhinitis and other diseases, endangering human health, so in addition to eliminating live mites, it is also necessary to clean up the allergens in time.
After understanding the Xi characteristics of mites, how to effectively control dust mite harm, I summarized 3 strategic goals, as follows:
Take the life of live mites and reduce the number of live mites.
Collect dead mites and reduce mite allergen levels.
Mites don't move, I moved your house, reducing or reducing the chance and level of human exposure to live mites and dead mites.
2. Is the mite remover an IQ tax?
Let's start with my personal opinion: mite removal is not an IQ tax.
My understanding of the IQ tax is: 1, you don't need it, this product and service has no value to you;2. Excessive marketing will overexaggerate the product and service, which is greater than its own use value.
I think that products and services that meet the above two basic conditions can be called IQ tax.
Why do I think it's not an IQ tax?
Do not meet the above two I think the product is the condition of IQ tax, the mite remover belongs to one of the subdivisions of the vacuum cleaner, and its product value is: remove mites, reduce allergens, and improve the living environment;For real users who want to buy a mite removal instrument, it can really have this efficacy value, so it is available at the level of product value, not to mention IQ tax;
So in terms of mite remover, first of all, the most basic principle should be known, at least to know how the thing you bought works, and only then can you know what is the indispensable function when you compare.
For a mite remover, the most critical ability to remove dust mites is reflected in two places: adsorption and patting.
First of all, the attachment strength of the legs of the mite is destroyed by slapping the module, and the mite and its secretions are "shaken out" with high-frequency vibration, which is similar to the slapping principle after we dry the quilt.
Then, the motor in the main engine is rotated to generate a relative vacuum, which absorbs the dust and mites on the items into the interior and sucks them away in a timely and effective manner. The two indicators of slapping and suction can be combined with each other to effectively remove mites;
Therefore, as long as you choose a mite remover that meets the indicators, you can really effectively get rid of mites, and the product is a useful value for you, and it is not considered an IQ tax.
3. Clarify the purpose of purchase.
So what are the more suitable situations to choose a mite removal instrument, I have listed several common needs below, which you can use as a reference, as follows:
Mites are allergic and need to be removed every day.
There are children at home, sofas, bedding, blankets, plush toys, etc., and there are many items that need to be removed.
There are many people and bedding, so it is inconvenient to change the bedding frequently.
There are many rainy days in the location, and it is impossible to remove mites in the sun, so you need to clean up with mite removal tools.
There is a lot of hair and pet hair, which needs to be cleaned and hygienic, and it should be used as a suck.
Use a mite remover to reduce mite allergens and want to delay the cleaning cycle.
To sum up, if your needs are matched, then it is appropriate to buy a mite remover to use.
Second, what to see when buying a mite removal instrument?Analysis of key elements.
This part is the core fragment of the article, which will not only tell you the basic structure and parameters of the mite removal instrument, but also what factors should be considered before purchasing, which can greatly reduce the probability of problems when you purchase a mite removal instrument.
1. Personalized functional requirements.
When you choose a mite remover, you often see a lot of products, but you still don't know how to choose. It is difficult to generalize about the situation of each family, so it is recommended to first think about what your core needs are, and then combine them with your own situation.
Below I have listed the eight functional requirements of the mite removal instrument, and we select products according to their own focus and targeting, so that it is not easy to be blindly entangled.
The main thing here is to emphasize the priority of these features, and don't put the cart before the horse.
2. Don't choose a mite removal instrument!
Because the first indicator of purchasing a mite removal instrument is "cleaning ability", it is not recommended that you choose if the mite removal configuration does not meet the following conditions.
Suction: Suction is the most basic parameter, you must see, because mites will firmly grasp the fibers of the mattress and clothing, if the suction is not good, the effect of removing mites will decline, usually not less than 10kpa, the suction is not up to standard, do not choose.
Shooting ability: This is also the higher the better, the higher the strength and frequency of the fight, the better the grip of destroying the mites, the cleaner the clean, generally speaking, less than 10,000 points do not consider.
Purchase suggestions: Some businesses advertise that the product weighs only 1kg and has a lightweight design, and it is easy to useIt is really a fat configuration, the motor power is not enough, and it cannot achieve an effective mite removal effect, so it is not recommended to choose this kind of product.
3. What are the details that affect the user experience?
Battery life. The main thing here is whether the cord length of the wired style is enough;The battery life of the wireless model is not enough.
Wired model: The power cord is usually about 4 meters, suitable for continuous use, multiple rooms can be switched and cleaned, ** generally more affordable than wireless.
Wireless model: one-time battery life is 6 10 minutes, but the battery life is short, and it is impossible to complete multiple room cleaning;**More expensive than wired.
Purchase suggestions: not mite allergies often travel, it is recommended to use at home or give priority to wired, wireless battery life is a major drawback, with a few minutes to charge dozens of minutes of electricity, more items score several times to take care of.
Noise decibels. According to the industry standard of QB T 5363-2019 "Mite Remover" formulated by China Household Electrical Appliances Research Institute, the maximum sound power level noise limit is 83dB when the mite remover is working.
I have tested more than a dozen different brands and models of mite removers, and there is not much difference in noise, basically between 76 and 83db, and if you want to clean efficiently at present, it is inevitable in the noise area, if you are very sensitive to noise, you need to consider buying.
Suction port width. The width of the suction inlet affects the cleaning efficiency of the mite remover. The larger the suction inlet, the larger the single cleaning area and the higher the cleaning efficiency.
At present, the width of the inlet of the traditional mite remover is only 10 16mm, which I personally think is obviously not enough. When purchasing, you can pay attention to the products with a suction inlet width of more than 20mm, which can effectively improve the speed of mite removal.
Filtration system. The mite remover needs to inhale dust, mites, hair and other debris into the dust cup, and the dust cup here actually needs to play a filtering effect.
If the dust cup can't filter out all kinds of debris well, it is easy to get into these situations:
It is impossible to separate large pieces of debris from fine dust, resulting in the problem of clogging the dust cup;
All kinds of debris bacteria cause air pollution when poured out;
It is easy to get your hands dirty when you pour out debris, and it is even more troublesome to clean.
Here I recommend that you choose a product with multiple filtration design when purchasing, and it is best to achieve dust separation, which can effectively avoid the above problems.
4. The choice of the function of the mite remover.
We often see that the mite remover will come with these functions, such as: ultraviolet, ultrasonic, infrared, etc., the main role is to kill bacteria and other microorganisms, these functions are basically not helpful for mite removal, so it is not recommended that you consider it as a core factor when purchasing, just an additional icing on the cake.
Let's talk about some of the relevant functional versions, so that you can have a basic understanding.
Ultraviolet light: Ultraviolet (UV) is a shorter wavelength electromagnetic wave that is usually divided into three types: UVA, UVB, and UVC. The UV-C wavelength is between 200-280nm and has a very strong disinfection ability. Therefore, the mite remover usually uses ultraviolet lamps in the UV-C band, which inactivate microorganisms through ultraviolet irradiation to achieve the purpose of disinfection and sterilization.
During use, ultraviolet rays are directly irradiated into the air or on the surface of objects, causing the DNA or RNA molecules of microorganisms to be damaged by ultraviolet rays, causing them to lose their viability. In addition, the chemical bonds in organic molecules can be broken through the photolysis of ultraviolet light, so as to achieve the effect of removing odors.
Hot air sterilization: I think this function is more to assist in humid, rainy days hot drying bedding, although theoretically the temperature of more than 50 is enough to eliminate live mites, but the air outlet of the mite removal instrument is narrow and fine, and the fixed point stay high temperature mite removal is too long (high temperature mite removal takes more than 10 15 minutes to make the mite dehydrated to death), this efficiency is too low, not as fast as the effect of using an electric blanket.
For the mildew rain climate in the southern region is a plus point, the rain is very wet, the quilt will be damp, it is very uncomfortable to use, if there is a hot air dehumidification function, you can dry the bedding before going to bed, and it is comfortable to sleep.
Ultrasound: The mite remover can produce up to 40 megahz (hertz) ultrasound that is inaudible to the human ear.
The mite remover uses the unique frequency of ultrasound on the physiological system of the mite, so that it resonates to inhibit the feeding and reproduction process in the life cycle of the dust mite, thereby reducing the density of dust mites and allergens in the space, reducing mite allergy and mite allergic asthma attacks, and is harmless to people and pets, so as to solve the dust mite control problem existing in the prior art.
To put it simply: let the mites be irritable and lose their appetite, that is, the mites can hear, and then feel very annoyed, don't like to live there, and expel the mites away.
Infrared: Far infrared refers to invisible light in the wavelength range of 4 1000 m in the infrared. Far infrared heating technology is based on radiation heating, and light, without any medium to conduct, as a heat-free direct heating method, can penetrate deep into the inner layer of the fabric, directly act on mites and fabrics, so that the internal molecules and atoms "resonate" and then cause the temperature of the mites and the fabric to rise.
When acting on the mite activity area, the RH value of the fabric can be reduced, and the mite secretion will crystallize at the opening of the gland and no longer flow. The mite eggs are extremely small, and the average length and width of the mite eggs is (6668±5.67μm )x（42.76±3.41 m), the general way to remove mites can not ** mite eggs. However, far-infrared rays can directly penetrate the egg shell and cause the friction and resonance of water molecules in the mite eggs to generate heat, so as to achieve the effect of killing the mite eggs.
The role of infrared is to enter the depths of the fabric to remove mites, the same as the hot air and high temperature mite removal effect, but it requires a certain amount of time, the efficiency is low, it is better than nothing, you can choose a combination of the two mite removal instrument when purchasing.
3. Common marketing traps [must see before placing an order].
1. The advertisement claims that the ultraviolet creep removal theory is effective, but it is not operable.
UV-C band ultraviolet light does theoretically kill mites, choose 253The 7nm wavelength is recognized as the best wavelength range, but if you think that as long as the ultraviolet rays shine on the mites, the mites will die of light, then you are wrong, and the ultraviolet lamps used in the creep meter are mostly 6-15W. The higher the power, the stronger the intensity, and the stronger the intensity, the less time it takes to get rid of a single mite.
The specific calculation formula is as follows: Inactivation metering k (UV dose) = L (irradiation intensity) x t (irradiation time).
According to the power of the purple line lamp of the mite remover, the time required to destroy general bacteria is calculated.
Even for ordinary bacteria, the lamp equipped with the mite remover is completely impossible to do in more than half an hour, and for the larger full worm in a few hours, it is impossible to achieve ultraviolet mite removal at all.
Therefore, the function of ultraviolet rays is more to "assist" the mite removal instrument to sanitize bacteria and microorganisms on the surface of some items.
2. Hot air mite removal is just a legend.
The general mite removal instrument is 50 degrees to the outside world, and to effectively remove mites inactivation temperature to 53 degrees, 50 degrees for mites, at most is to live more anxious, want to remove mites in a short period of time through hot air is really a little difficult, considering the heat attenuation, the thickness of the mattress, even if it is a very ideal situation, to be able to reach the internal temperature must be below 50 degrees, 10,000 steps back, mite gene breakthrough, heat resistance explosion, 50 degrees can also be done, the most important must be to continue to blow on a position for 10 minutes, how much time are you going to spend cleaning up a mattress？
Therefore, theoretically, hot air is effective in removing mites, which can kill mites on the surface or shallow layer of fibers, but the efficiency is too low;It is more used to heat the dehumidifying bedding.
3. The greater the power, the greater the suction power of the deception instrument (vacuum cleaner).
Theoretically speaking, for the same product, as long as the motor power is increased, the suction power will naturally increase. However, the technical strength of each enterprise is different, and the poor air duct structure design, or the outdated motor technology, or the filter network is blocked, will lead to the situation of high power and low energy.
It's like 3A car with a displacement of 0l is not necessarily more than 1The speed of 6L is fast, a reason.
Therefore, there is no clear standard for judging the suction power and rated power of a mite remover.
4. Light sound design.
As far as the current mainstream honey motor technology is concerned, noise is almost inevitable, and the senior brand of vacuum cleaner is 5 decibels lower than the same category, and the gap is not very obvious.
Don't believe the 60 decibels marked on the page, it's all for children.
Most of the small decibel mite removers are caused by the small power of the motor and the weak suction.
Fourth, the specific model of the mite remover is recommended.
There are too many brands and models of mite removal instruments on the market, and the recommended products focus on being easy to use and can solve the needs, so they will not put a lot of product models for everyone.
The following is introduced one by one according to the budget range of the purchase, and you can view the introduction and recommendation according to the desired mite removal instrument.

Write at the end. In addition to mites, it must be a system engineering, do not hope to get rid of them, just like bacteria, mites are also a part of our living environment, as long as they are kept under the dangerous concentration of allergies.
So, what other ways should you reduce the risk of dust allergies in your life?
For people who are prone to allergies, mite removal can only be a part.
Mites removal requires not only a single mite removal device, but also daily cleaning of the environment and bedding. These include:
Keep the ambient humidity below 51%, especially in the humid rainy season, and actively use air conditioners or dehumidifiers to reduce indoor humidity. Mites are very tolerant when the air humidity is below 50%.
Use a high-efficiency air filter to reduce the concentration of dust mites in the air.
Dust indoor surfaces, including beds, sofas, bookshelves, etc., every week, using a mite remover or vacuum cleaner.
If you have a carpet at home, use a vacuum cleaner or mite remover at least twice a week to suck it, and clean and dry it for two weeks to 1 month (it is best not to use carpets, the floor mat is not fragrant, just wipe it dirty).
Bedding should be changed weekly, not more than 10 14 days, it can be washed with 55 degrees for 10 minutes, and exposed to the sun for more than 2 hours after washing, or dried with a heat pump dryer after washing.
Plush toys, pillows, etc., should be sucked twice a week with a vacuum cleaner or mite remover, and should also be washed regularly exposed to the sun or dried. If it cannot be dried, it can be wrapped in a sealed plastic bag, put in the refrigerator freezer and freeze it for 24 hours at -17 degrees Celsius -20 degrees Celsius, which can kill mites, and then wash and dry normally.
If the mattress is a newly bought mattress sofa, you can use a mite-proof material sofa cover with a hole diameter of less than 10 microns, a bed sheet, etc.
