  • Methods for controlling dust mites and the allergens produced by dust mites
    Patent number: 6428801
    Abstract: Alcohol based aerosol spray compositions which contain 1-20% of an alcohol-soluble polymer which, on evaporation, leaves on a sprayed surface a film which acts as a barrier to dust, dust mites and their faecal excretions. These compositions optionally can include an acaricidal ingredient, such as benzyl benzoate, and one or more antimicrobial ingredients such as a quaternary ammonium salt.

  • Dust mite control compositions containing benzyl benzoate and alcohol
    Patent number: 5916917
    Abstract: An alcohol based disinfecting composition which contains from 0.1% to 10% of benzyl benzoate is effective in killing dust mites. The compositions can comprise additional disinfectants and are most conveniently applied in aerosol form with a suitable propellant. Allergens contained in the faecal matter excreted by dust mites can be controlled by removing dead mites and associated faecal matter using a vacuuming apparatus under conditions which do not cause the removed material to vent into the ambient atmosphere.
