"How can you tell if it works?" star star star star_border star_border I bought this to help my daughter who is highly allergic to house dust mite. It does vibrate and light up and there is visible evidence of something being sucked into the box - but how can you tell if it is eliminating the house dust mite? There is nothing other than the degree of scratching that indicates its effectiveness. I so want to believe in this product but could do with some kind of confirmation that it is working - particularly as I purchased mine on 27th July and see today that it has reduced by nearly £17.00!!!
