At the same time that Mr. TBaM and I were sent some new bedding to keep us nestled in our slumber, The Fine Bedding Company also sent some for The Boy so he wouldn't feel left out!
The bedding set being used as a den above is the children's anti-allergy set available in 4.5 or 7 tog for a cotbed or 4.5 tog for a single bed (this set is a single bed set with a pillow and duvet). It has a peachskin cover for a soft and comforting finish, the duvet has a soft microfibre blend filling while the pillow is filled with mini ball clusters, it uses Amicor anti-allergy treatment and is washable at 60°C (the temperature that kills dustmites).
The anti-allergy set costs £35.00 for the duvet and pillow for the single bed and from £30.00 for the cotbed sets. Having spent some time researching other prices on the Internet, it does seem to be the average price for an anti-allergy set, indeed the duvet alone that The Boy had previously was reduced to £20 in a sale and that was without the pillow. I think that it's a fair price for a set which will ensure that our sensitive-skinned son sleeps well each night with mimimal irritation.
In anticipation of, and to help promote, Anti-Allergy Week (22nd-28th April 2013), The Fine Bedding Company are very generously giving away one Children's Anti-allergy Bed Set worth from £30.00 to one lucky reader on TheBoyandMe.
To be in with a chance of winning, please complete the Rafflecopter form below. (The prize will be either a 4.5 or 7.0 tog cotbed set, or a 4.5 tog single bed set, including a duvet and a pillow)
I was sent this product for the purpose of this review. My opinion is honest and unbiased.
Damp dust to ensure you get as much dust up as possible
Fab comp as usual! Luka has really sensitive skin so this would be great for him

oops. Should've added my top tip is to change bedding regularly and use sensitive washing powder etc
xx
Before my sister-in-law comes to stay I give the bed a vacuum. I hope it helps. Our cats don't help, unfortunately!
I always hoover the matress every month & change the bedding every two weeks, use non bio washing tablets and fabric softner
Control moulds – which includes cleaning bathtubs and showers monthly! (I hate cleaning plug holes but was given this advice by my doctor!)
Regularly vac, change bedding and air beds to reduce effects of allergies.
A great comp as my son is due new bedding. 🙂
I hoover the bed when I hoover upstairs and crack open the windows in the mornings
We have a very special mattress for our little one – it's basically a metal frame with a sheet and its hollow inside! It's the best thing we ever got for our boy: his dad suffers from all allergies under the sun as well as asthma and eczema 🙂
I hoover and use wipes to dust, and wash the pillows and duvets lots too
Make sure to get plenty of fresh air in the house and keep on top of the dusting!
I Hoover the mattress weekly.
Change bedding regularly and use skin kind washing powder.
sensitive skin washing powder
change the bedding frequently and hoover

i hoover daily and open the windows, i try not to use chemicals for cleaning in the boys room, i try and use baking soda or soda crystals as the smells seem to set my son off
I make sure all my pets are done and bedding changed weekly x
Hoover and dust regularly
My daughter has asthma, under control now, she's 22, but I do remember scary times when she was young. Keep pets out of bedrooms, minimum of carpets for easy vacuuming, use paint or varnish when kids are away. Wet comb with conditioner rather than use headlice killer. Have spare inhalers!
changing bedding on a regular basis
Air the house and clean regularly.
I leave the duvet cover off the bed during the day,it keeps the bed cool and cuts down the risk of bed mites,if you make the bed as soon as you get out of it the warm environment is a haven for them!
Using non-bio washing powder and fragrance/soap free products. Keeping rooms well ventilated.
I dust up everyday and air the house
Top tip – laminate floors so you can wet dust easier. I have perennial rhinitis and it makes such a difference over carpets.
opening the windows, and a good hoover once a week.
Declutter to get rid of all the dust catching junk 🙂
Change bedding regularly and hoover & dust too 🙂
Regularly vacuum and dust with a damp cloth.
Regularly vacuum the mattress, dont use aerosols or talcum powder
i have a dyson, they are great for lifting dust off the carpets & flooring x
Make sure you hoover your matress and replace your pillows every few months
We invested in a specialist vacuum for pet hair – we don't have any pets! I chose thy particular one because it boasted good results for other allergies including pollen! My little family, between us, have many allergies and asthmatics so I often look for anti allergy products!

Make sure you give the house a really good clean
separate covers for mattress & pillows that can be washed at high temps
Hoover the bed and bedroom daily x
Regular cleaning
Wash bedding regularly
Hoover regularly!
other than just dusting and hoover regularly and open the windows to air the home, wash and change bedding regularly, im not sure
change bedding/hoover regularly
Hoover well & regularly THEN wipe any dust down with wet wipes/cloths. Open windows slightly each day too just to allow fresh air in & vacuum the beds often.
Hoover regularly and don't switch detergent too often.
My main tip is to persuade your partner that we don't have to have feather pillows! I've never been affected by them until we moved into this house but I struggled terribly until we replaced them recently.
Get a good vacuum cleaner and use it daily
Hang the duvet out during the winter (if we ever get a dry day). It kills off the dust mites and a few other nasties that can cause allergies.
Tumble dry the sheets it kills off mites which cause the allergies.
hoover keep place clean and tidy
Regular hoovering, and opening windows daily!
Opening up the windows when dusting and hoovering to let the dust out.
Keep on top of the dusting!
wash bedding frequently including duvets!
opening the windows for at least an hour everyday
Put teddies in the freezer for 24 hours once a month it kills any dust mites
hoover teddies,mattresses carpets every day, wash the actual mattress cover (not bed sheets i obviously wash them!) use surcare soap powder i swear by it!
Make sure everything is dust-free, clean and tidy! 🙂 x
In my house – wrap your kid in a glass bubble and do not let him out.
My top tip would be avoid clutter which includes open sheves for toys and books.
