I think you have to use the "HEPA filter vacuum bags", because they capture the tiny micron size. Others have mentioned this, above. I see several brands on Amazon, I'd buy right now if I were you, for yourself and for other sewing minded friends if this turns into a long haul. I see on Amazon the Kirby vacuum bags are billed as "Allergen reduction filters". Maybe someone else could weigh in if these are the style to get.Thank you NuttMegg for the great video! I think I'll need a filter about 5" x 3.5" so based on her way of cutting the bag open, I should be able to get a few filters from each bag. Very interesting! And Amazon even has vacuum bags still available! I guess for this purpose, brands would be about the same? I use a canister vac so I haven't had to buy bags in a long time.
