There is a good reason to try to keep your home dust-free. In addition to your furniture looking nicer, there are health benefits. Allowing dust buildup in your home can trigger allergies in you, your family, and your pets.
Choosing the right cleaning tools is the first step. You want tools that will pick up the dust and not just spread it around. Many people like microfibers because they do a good job of grabbing the dust. Make sure that your vacuum has an empty canister, and clean the filter regularly. Otherwise, you may have very limited suction and waste your time. After vacuuming hard floor surfaces, it’s a good idea to follow up with a mop or swiffer to get up any dust left behind. Air purifiers are also popular to reduce the dust count in your home.
Try to keep your home clutter-free. The more stuff you have, the harder it is to dust properly. Dust from top to bottom. Make sure to dust your picture frames, light fixtures, ceiling fans, and door frames. Then dust your furniture’s upholstery. Lastly, get the baseboards and floors..
