a benzyl benzoate, tea tree oil, and
methyl salicylate laundry additive
to control dust mites
Several papers
and abstracts have been published in
recent years on the clinical testing of benzyl
benzoate
and its effect upon reducing dust mite populations.
Two of them, both
relating
to its use as a laundry additive and
published in the
Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology,
are included here:
1. "The Effectiveness of Benzyl Benzoate
and Some Essential Plan Oils as Additives for Killing Dust Mites"
by Lindy G. McDonald and Euan Tovey
and
2. "Low Temperature Washing with
Mite Control Additives: Does it Provide a Temporary Mite Prophylaxis Against
Domestic Mites?"
by A. Fisher, F.M. Kniest, E.R.C. Bischoff
