Don’t Let the Bed Bugs Bite

January 19, 2005 | Aussie Dave | Comments

Me lazy? No. I’m just being healthy.

Failing to make your bed in the morning may actually help keep you healthy, scientists believe.

 

Research suggests that while an unmade bed may look scruffy it is also unappealing to house dust mites thought to cause asthma and other allergies.

 

A Kingston University study discovered the bugs cannot survive in the warm, dry conditions found in an unmade bed.

The moral of the story? When you wake up in the morning, don’t make your bed.

 

Oh, and don’t eat hamburgers for breakfast.
