THERE are many products to help hayfever sufferers, but those allergic to dust mites and cat and dog dander can suffer all year round.
Research shows carpets, upholstery, curtains and mattresses harbour dirt, dust and allergens. About 70 per cent of it is dead skin.
But a new vacuum cleaner, the Wertheim Powerbrush, claims to extract dirt and allergy-bearing dust and has been endorsed with the Allergy UK Seal of Approval.
* The Wertheim Powerbrush Cleaner starts from £239, and will be available from Comet in June or direct from the company (0845 680 9687 wertheim.uk.com) now.
