Covering your mattress with a Southern Textiles mattress protector will protect you and your family from dust mites, bed bugs, and bacteria and thus promotes a comfortable safe hygienic sleeping environment for you. You can now enjoy your mattress and still keep it clean and sanitary at the same time! Keeping your mattress covered with a Southern Textiles mattress protector will keep the dust mites that are breeding inside your mattress away from you. Dust mites have been known to cause allergies, asthma,eczema and rhinitis. Dust mites feed on body fluids and eat the dead skin cells. By keeping the body fluids and skin cells away from your mattress you are helping to keep dust mites to a minimum.
A seriously growing problem is bed bugs. Bed bugs usually live in mattresses and at night they look for food and feed on blood. Bed bug bites are painful and itchy and can sometimes cause allergic reactions and secondary infections. Even in very clean homes, bed bugs can be found simply because they get transported easily as people move from place to place or as furniture and belongings get moved from one place to another. Bed bugs are most common in college dorms, hotels, motels, and places where people move in and out. People can bring home bed bugs from travelling or staying at someone's home. Our mattress protector will lock up these bed bugs inside your mattress so they don't come out biting at night while you should be sleeping like a bear.
Amazingly, these covers are waterproof yet thin. Unless you are looking to add additional cushion to your mattress, these covers don't need to add unnecessary extra padding that can possibly create discomfort on your mattress. Place this over your mattress and then your sheets and other beddings go over it. No extra care is required to wash and dry these mattress covers.
These mattress protectors come with generous elastic band on the side that expands to hold up to 19 inch deep mattresses. You place them over your mattress and the deep pockets fit easily and stay in place. They won't pop off during the night.
