No.....but my husband does. I'm okay with it but he can't sleep in an unmade bed.

OK, all you neat freaks, this from the BBC:

A Kingston University study discovered that dust mites (which can cause asthma and allergies) cannot survive in the warm, dry conditions found in an unmade bed.The average bed could be home to up to 1.5 million house dust mites.

The bugs, which are less than a millimetre long, feed on scales of human skin and produce allergens which are easily inhaled during sleep.The warm, damp conditions created in an occupied bed are ideal for the creatures, but they are less likely to thrive when moisture is in shorter supply.

This is a dust mite magnified. {#emotions_dlg.scared}

House dust mite

eeewww!

There are advantages to living in a desert environment. It's almost never damp in my house. Towels dry in minutes in the summer! {#emotions_dlg.biggrin}
