现代人工作生活忙碌，很多人养成了从来不晒被子的习惯。不过，如果你听说了网上流传甚广的一句话：“三个月不晒被，六百万螨虫陪你睡。”是不是会立刻抱起被子冲向阳台？

Modern people are busy with work and life, and many have developed the habit of never drying their blankets. However, if you hear a widely circulated saying online: "Three months without sunbathing, six million mites will sleep with you." Will you immediately pick up the blanket and rush to the balcony?

螨虫害怕暴晒，很多人都知道这个道理。不过，随着生活节奏的加快，很多年轻人并不习惯于频繁晒被子。螨虫在地毯、沙发、毛绒玩具、被褥、坐垫、床垫和枕芯等处滋生，以人的汗液、分泌物、脱落的皮屑为食，繁殖速度极快。如果长期不晒被子消毒，螨虫的数量增长的确很快。

Mites are afraid of direct sunlight, and many people know this truth. However, with the acceleration of the pace of life, many young people are not accustomed to frequently drying their blankets. Mites breed in carpets, sofas, plush toys, bedding, seat cushions, mattresses, and pillowcases, feeding on human sweat, secretions, and shed dander, and reproduce at an extremely fast rate. If the bedding is not sun dried and disinfected for a long time, the number of mites will indeed increase rapidly.

有人说，晒完被子的那股“太阳的味道”，就是烤螨虫的味道，其实这个不可尽信。被子在太阳下晒，大自然的空气、植物的香气被棉花吸收，就有了所谓的“太阳的味道”，这是和螨虫无关的。

Some people say that the "smell of the sun" after drying the quilt is the smell of roasted mites, but this cannot be completely believed. The quilt is exposed to the sun, and the natural air and plant fragrance are absorbed by cotton, giving it the so-called 'scent of the sun', which has nothing to do with mites.

早上起来不叠被子被老一辈人视为坏习惯，但也有人说不叠被子可以杀死螨虫。其实不叠被子和杀死螨虫关系不大，最关键的是被褥存放的环境。如果房间通风良好，即使是叠好的被子也能保持干燥，对遏制螨虫繁殖有帮助，相反，房间环境潮湿，螨虫就能长久生存。

Not folding the bed in the morning is considered a bad habit by the older generation, but some people say that not folding the bed can kill mites. Actually, not folding the bedding has little to do with killing mites, the most crucial thing is the environment in which the bedding is stored. If the room is well ventilated, even folded blankets can remain dry, which helps to curb the reproduction of mites. On the contrary, if the room environment is humid, mites can survive for a long time.
