How To Keep Dust To A Minimum In Your Home

• No matter where we live, what style our home is,
  or even how clean we keep it, dust will always be
  present, but we can learn to keep it at a
  minimum.
• Preventing dust from settling is the key, and
  here are a few tips
• Try to avoid having too many ornaments and
  knickknacks
• Such items can of course look nice in your home,
  and if they are larger, cleaning them is much
  less time consuming. But fill your shelves and
  surfaces with small items that will attract dust
  and be fiddly to clean, is just a recipe for a
  dusty disaster.

• Use allergen reducing covers on your bed linen
• Waking up with a stuffy noise every morning,
  maybe a clear indicator of a dust allergy. But
  using special covers for your sheets and pillows
  that deter dust from settling on them, will
  certainly help with dust allergies. Remember to
  wash the covers at least twice a year in hot
  water.
• Place doormats outside every entrance way to your
  home
• Putting heavy duty doormats with a tight weave
  and rubber backs outside every doorway, will help
  prevent dirt and dust particles from coming into
  your home with every person that enters.

• Consider buying air purifiers
• Air purifiers can really help to eliminate dust
  before it has a chance to settle, and placing
  them in the most used rooms of your home can
  dramatically reduce the dust levels. Fan powered
  purifiers are the most environmentally friendly
  and prices can vary depending on your budget.
• Monitor humidity levels in every room of your
  home
• Humidity levels in your home should ideally be
  between 40 and 50 to prevent unhealthy airborne
  particles from breeding. Static is also greatly
  reduced when these levels are kept in check, and
  static attracts dust.

• You can keep humidity levels in check by
  purchasing a digital humidity meter or
  hygrometer, available in all good hardware
  stores.
• Swap drapes for blinds wherever possible
• Blinds made of plastic, wood or metal are so much
  easier to clean than fabric drapes, and we all
  know that whatever we hang at our windows will
  attract dust, so why make life harder for
  ourselves than it already is? You can use a
  microfibre cloth or an electrostatic duster on
  blinds, and if you must have drapes, then simply
  use the upholstery tool on your vacuum cleaner to
  suck the dust off.

• Try to avoid using fabric softener or dryer
  sheets when washing cleaning cloths
• It can be automatic to use fabric softener or
  dryer sheets when were cleaning our cleaning
  cloths, just as we would with the rest of our
  laundry, but doing so can drastically reduce
  their ability to attract and hold dust, and
  absorb liquids.
• If youre struggling to keep dust to a minimum in
  your home, then why not call in the professionals
  and have them regularly clean your home to ensure
  that dust doesnt get a chance to become a
  problem? Most cleaning companies have flexible
  schedules and budgets to suit your every need,
  and will keep your home, clean, tidy and dust
  free.
