    Used to always have clogged nostrils when going to bed.

    But when I slept at hotels I never had a clogged nose.

    Turns out I was just allergic to dust mites.

    Bought anti-dustmite sheets / spray and boom, no longer had clogged nostrils in bed.

      Where did you get anti dustmite sheets? I looked a few years back and all I could find were $200 medical covers that were basically plastic bags and 1000 different ones on Amazon with 1* durability reviews. I would love to have a “legit” source and maybe some info on expectations.

        Pricing for both combined being less than $50

      Yep, never thought I had allergies. I was prescribed an antihistamine for a sleep disorder, and noticed this doesn’t happen to me when I take antihistamines.
