Can these be washed in hot water to kill dust mites?

I imagine it matters which color you buy... i habe the tan sheets and wash them as instructed. My recommendation is wash as instructed and dry on high. This will work the same way without potentially damaging you're sheets and their color

The tag instructs to wash in warm, air dry. I've washed in warm and used the dryer. I think you can wash these hot and they'll hold up well. The cotton is thick and strong. I hope that helps!

Yes, I have washed these sheets in hot water for years. I also dry them in a hot dryer. They come out clean and unwrinkled.

I have been using them for over 10 years and have never needed to clean them. I suppose if you sweat profusely, you might need something, but I really don't see why. However, I would think you could through them in the washing machine.

Hi, yes the cloths are machine washable in warm or hot water. They can be air dried or put in dryer. No bleach or fabric softener. Hope this answers your Q.

They're supposed to be treated with an antimicrobial that keeps them fresh. I would'nt try washing them, myself.

Yes. We wash them with soap and water. We have been very pleased with this product.

Yes, this detergent kills dust mites in any temperature water. It smells like a natural cleaner rather than the scented laundry soaps we are use to. It reminds me of an Aveda salon.

There is no need to wash prior to use. I have had this product on both my full and queen beds for years. Always make sure to wash in hot water as that will kill the dust mites. Also when drying it is best to check on it, as you will need to move it around every 10 minutes or so to have it completely dry.

sure - but if you're washing, hot water and bleach will do better than permethrin at killing bugs and mites; so this would be double duty.

No- these last a long time but have a strong perfumed smell. They are ok to use in very hot water.

I've washed them a few times. The fabric becomes softer but still seems to work for dust mite protection.

I just purchased my new Shark Pet Dustbuster, and went ahead and purchased several boxes of the dust cups; it does not say whether you can wash them or not; I use a toothbrush to clean the filters with every use. Its a 3 pack, so guess you could try rinsing one to see.

i have run them through a gentle cycle once just to clean them before use but i would still handwash them to be safe. they are small so it shouldnt be a burden

I have washed them in water. They seem to work afterwards. I would reccomend allowing them to dry completely before you use them after a wash. What works better and faster then washing them is to take them outside and spray them with a can of compressed air you use on electronics to remove the dust. This works better and they can be used right after. Note that should you choose to was them you run the risk of mold or mildew within the filter if they do not dry properly.

I wash them in soapy water and rinse them thoroughly. Since I use them to apply flea control onto animals my solution wears the numbers off after a few uses so I must dispose of them.

Yes, wash with soapy water and dry! They are great! Used them at Christmas made 8 doz cookies! So fast and easy!

I do not think you can wash them, but they can but you can shake them in a wast basket and remove the loose particles. It would be best to just replace after dusting. They are excellent in grappling dust you did not even was there. Highly recommend.

I wash them by hand. They are very thin and I would worry about scratches and shape distortion by the hot water.
