Dust and storage mites are a common but often overlooked problem in Rockport and the Coastal Bend homes and vacation rentals. These microscopic pests thrive in carpets, bedding, upholstered furniture, and storage areas, triggering allergies and affecting indoor air quality. Regular cleaning and professional care are essential to keep your property healthy, fresh, and guest-ready.


Why Dust and Storage Mites Matter

Dust mites feed on dead skin cells and can accumulate quickly in mattresses, pillows, carpets, and stored linens. Their presence can cause allergic reactions, respiratory issues, and discomfort for residents and guests. For short-term rentals, unchecked dust and mites can lead to negative guest experiences and lower ratings.


Our Solution: HEPA Filtration and Professional Cleaning

At Ship Shape, we use HEPA-filtered vacuums for carpets, rugs, and upholstery to trap even the smallest particles, including dust, allergens, and storage mites. Combined with steam cleaning, CRB machines, and commercial-grade equipment, we provide a deep clean that removes dust and minimizes allergen exposure, leaving your property healthier and more inviting.


Pro Tips to Reduce Dust and Mites:

  • Vacuum carpets, rugs, and furniture regularly with HEPA-filtered vacuums.

  • Wash bedding, linens, and curtains frequently in hot water.

  • Declutter storage areas and wipe down shelves.

  • Schedule professional deep cleaning for hard-to-reach areas and seasonal maintenance.
