10 Ways To Allergy Proof Your Home

A Good Vacuum

A vacuum that spews dust while you are cleaning is a sure way to backfire your cleaning efforts, and will only add to the collection of dust mites and pet dander causing your allergic reactions. An investment of a good vacuum, one with a HEPA filter, will pay off in the long run in terms of your comfort and health. The filter is made with a very fine mesh through which air is forced and traps tiny particulates, including those harmful ones, as small as 0.3 microns. In comparison, an average human hair is approximately fifty to 150 microns in diameter.
