This study was conducted to determine the influence of environmental factors on the prevalence of house dust mites in student dormitories of Bandar Abbas city. In this study, 64 dust samples were collected from seven randomly selected dormitories located in various areas of the Bandar Abbas.The collected mites were isolated and mounted in Hoyer's medium and identified using a morphological key.The associations between the environmental factors and the density of house dust mites were investigated. In total, 1,093 adult mites were collected and identified.They consisted of four species including Dermatophagoides pteronyssinusTrouessart (57.6%), Dermatophagoides farinae Hughes (24.3%) and Dermatophagoides evansi Fain (14.9%) (Acari: Pyroglyphidae), and Cheyletus malaccensis Oudemans (3.2%) (Acari: Cheyletidae). All of the dormitories were contaminated by more than one house dust mites species and the mean density of house dust mites in dormitories was 8.3 ± 0.2 mites/g of dust. There was a significant relationship between average house dust mites density and some of environmental factors such as relative humidity, temperature, floor covering type, and number of occupants (P < 0.05). Results of this study revealed that two major allergenic dust mites, D. pteronyssinus and D. farinae, were the most prevalent and collected from all of dormitories and some of indoor environmental factors found to influence mites' population.
