Get an air purifier, of course. I don't think anything will COMPLETELY eliminate dust mites though. They're everywhere! But, an air purifier will help a lot. ------

Vacuum your mattress at least once a week and wash all your bedding's and rugs ,take down blinds and wash them ,then dust them once a week , curtains can be vacuumed as well , if you have carpet in the bedroom either remove it or shampoo it .Spray Lysol in the room to control them , and after all that work you will have a good night ! ------

Vacuum the mattress and wash the pillows, then put allergy covers on them. Wash the linens in hot water weekly. Use all cotton, washable quilts or comforters, wash as least once a month (you can toss them in the dryer weekly to remove dust), no chenille or anything fuzzy. Pull up that carpet and put down tile or laminate flooring. Keeping the room cooler than 70F cuts down on the mites too. Keep any pets out of the room. Dust the room regularly, depending on how fast it gets dusty it can be daily to weekly. ------
