History
In 1920, dust was not much of a deal, but in 1921, researchers suggested that household dust might be jumpstarting asthma attacks and allergic reactions. The results of the findings did not pose a major threat to anyone, they thought, so research was ended with no regrets or afterthoughts until 1964. A man by the name of Voohorst and a group of researchers began to wonder if a mite might be the cause of allergic reactions. The team found various species of mites that were labelled collectively as house mites. The type of mite that is commonly called the 'dust mite' is scientifically known as Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus, or 'skin-eating mites'.
