Psoriasis and Vacuum Cleaners

What has psoriasis to do with vacuum cleaners?
With the amount of flakes dropping from my skin all over the house, these are a necessity in my house.
The best is to use a paddy broom to sweep the flakes together then vacuum it up. I use another hand-held cyclonic one to scrape the flakes of the pillows, bedsheet and blanket. A robotic cleaner runs around to sweep up under the bed and on the carpets. My wife prefers a larger one for her use but she likes an ordinary mop.
The mop can only be used after sweeping and vacuuming otherwise it will just push wet flakes all over the floor. I prefer a microfibre mop which can pick up the remaining microscopic flakes better.

Luckily my upstairs floor is mostly parquet so it helps a bit. There are some small carpets and these get washed with a jet cleaner once in a while.
