Dyson reveals the truth about dust mites and dirt causing allergic reactions.

Dust mites are the number one cause of allergies in the home. They feed off human skin cells and litter our carpets, upholstery, clothing and cuddly toys with faeces. Just 1m2 of carpet can contain up to 1,000 dust mites with each dust mite generating up to 20 droppings a day. 

Their faeces are so light that they float in the air when disturbed by our everyday activities. It is inhaling these minute particles that can cause allergic reactions and frustrating fits of sneezing. 

Dyson cyclones capture microscopic particles down to 1/500th of a pinhead. Good news for allergy sufferers, bad news for dust mites.
