BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view of a method for killing mites of an electric heating cloth according to the present invention.
This embodiment shows an effective method for killing harmful microorganisms such as mites attached to the surface of the electric heating cloth 1 such as an electric hanging blanket or an electric blanket when the electric warming cloth 1 is used.

First, an electric warming cloth 1 shown in one embodiment of FIG. 1 is such that generally used as an electric blanket or a blanket shown in FIG. Power is supplied by a power cord 6 to a controller 4 connected to the heating device 3 via a cord 5, and the controller 4 is provided with a temperature control volume, a timer, a switch, and the like.

Therefore, in order to perform an acaricide operation on the electric warming cloth 1, the electric warming cloth 1 is folded into an appropriate size as shown in FIG. The cushion 8 is placed on the upper surface, or on the upper surface and the lower surface of the storage bag 7 in a state where it is stored in the storage bag 7 having no heat resistance. In addition, as the storage bag 7,
A non-permeable material of about 1 micron or less shall be used in consideration of the minimum size of mites, and a heat resistant material suitable for operating at a high temperature of 50 ° C. or more for mites as described later. Need to be of a sexual nature.

The cushion 8 is made of a material having a heat insulating property as much as possible. The cushion is provided so as to cover at least the upper surface of the storage bag 7 or the storage bag 7. The cushion 8 may be integrally attached to the upper and / or lower surfaces of the storage bag 7 or may be separately provided.

In the embodiment of FIG. 1, the above-mentioned cushion 8 is previously attached integrally only to the upper surface of the storage bag 7, and in the other embodiment of FIG. A separate cushion 8 is arranged, and FIG.
