I can't say enough good stuff about Provent-A-Mite. It really really works. I don't know if they sell at in the UK stores, but you should be able to get it online.

anatess- I've heard of provent-a-mite, but never seen it for sale over here.

I've used Zoomed Mite-off though

It is good you have an experienced vet so close...
