For the products treated by chemicals against house dust mites, the test methods specified in a) to c) are applied. For the physically treated products, the test method specified in d) is applied.

a) Repelling method by using Petri dish

This method is applied to carpet, bedding surface fabric, bed sheeting, bed covering and blanket.

b) Repelling method by using glass tube (Methods A and B)

This method is applied to wadding (bedding, etc.) with a fibre content of cotton, wool or synthetic fibre, feathers/down.

c) Proliferation method by using Petri dish (Method A) and using vial (Method B)

Method A is applied to carpet, bedding surface fabric, bed sheeting, bed covering and blanket. Method B is applied to wadding.
