Answer by  Negnancy (19)

Pour bleach down the drains regularly. Spray lemon juice on your mirror to clean it. Wash the floors with bleach. Dust off anything with too much dust. Use comet in your toilet bowl, sink, and shower to clean them. Clean counters with baking soda and water, or a cleaning supply. Clean everything at least once every 2 weeks.

Mites like dark, damp areas and the bathroom is a perfect place. If possible, have air circulating in bathroom to keep areas dry. Natural control can be obtained with mint, citrus, cedar, or cayenne pepper steeped in water and then used as a spray in the area.

Your bathroom is very humid and this is causing the mites. You need to get the humidity levels down and the mites will then decrease or go completely. Install a fan if you can or keep a small window locked on a latch to allow air in.
