Do these beds harbour dust mites?

FAQ's
No! Dust mites accumulate in pet beds because they live off skin flakes which fall off your pet and then penetrate into the filling of the bed or get trapped in the fabric itself, an ideal, warm environment for them to live in. Our beds use a poly/cotton twill fabric which does not allow the skin flakes to penetrate, so they are left on the Slip-cover, which is easy to remove and wash, rather than getting into the filling.

Do these beds harbour fleas?

FAQ's
No! Fleas accumulate in pet beds because they lay their eggs on the shaft of their victims hairs, which then fall off your pet and then penetrate into the filling of the bed or get caught in the fabric itself, an ideal, warm environment for them to hatch in. Our beds use a poly/cotton twill fabric which does not allow the hairs to penetrate so the eggs brush off the bed with the hairs rather then getting into the filling.

How do you avoid the ferries, tankers, and other traffic coming in and out of the Harbour?

Singapore Cross-English Channel Charity Swim
This is not a problem during the actual swim, as swimmers have right of way in the Channel- an exception to international maritime rules. Your pilot vessel will broadcast your position every half hour, and all other vessels are to steer clear of you. They do cause strong waves and cold patches which are very unpleasant to swim through. During our training, we swim between breakwaters and the ships do not come in there. What is a danger are other harbour users- in particular, rowing sculls.
