Could These 6 Things Be Responsible For Dust In
Your Home?

• For anyone with a dust allergy, keeping their
  home free from dust can help minimize their
  symptoms and make the air inside, much cleaner to
  breathe. But, dust can be hard enough to keep to
  a minimum, let alone eliminate altogether, and
  the amount of dust you have in your home can
  depend on a number of factors, such as whether
  you have pets, frequently open your windows or
  dont clean very often.
• To help you keep on top of areas in the home that
  are typically dusty, here are 6 things that can
  contribute to dust levels in your home

• Pollen, soil, and particle pollution
• In the majority of homes, around two thirds of
  dust present will have come from outside, in the
  form of pollen, soil and any other number of
  outdoor contaminants, even particulate matter
  from smoking. Pollen, for example, can easily be
  tracked inside on your footwear, clothes, or
  hair, and as you move around from room to room,
  the pollen spreads and settles on surfaces. This
  is also the way most outdoor particulate matter
  finds its way inside homes.

• Dust mites
• Occurring naturally and thriving in humid
  environments, dust mites are microscopic pests
  that may also be present in areas of the home
  that are not particularly damp or warm, but which
  typically host a lot of dust made up of dead skin
  and pet dander etc. Bedding, curtains and carpets
  may be teeming with them, and the more dust there
  is in your home, the more likely you are to have
  a high population of dust mites.

• Pet dander
• This common allergen found in many homes with
  pets, gets into the air and settles on surfaces,
  where it goes on to collect dust and dust mites
  exacerbating the symptoms of anyone suffering
  with a dust allergy. In some instances, pet
  dander may be present in a home without pets, if
  someone brought it in on their clothing, for
  example.
• Dead skin
• While its commonly thought to be the case that
  dust is made up almost entirely of dead skin
  particles, this in fact isnt the reality. Dust
  does indeed contain dead skin, but what dead skin
  there is in a home, actually acts more as a
  magnet for other indoor air pollutants and dust
  mites, adding to the dusty problem.

• Food particles
• Even if we clean up after ourselves when we eat
  inside the home, its not uncommon for crumbs and
  particles of food to slip down under the table,
  into the cracks of the sofa, or onto the floor,
  where they become natural components of dust.
• Insects and their droppings
• As gross as it may be, the fecal matter and body
  parts of a wide range of insects, including
  cockroaches, can be found in dust. Unfortunately,
  cockroaches can infest any home, even those that
  are spotlessly clean, and if youre allergic to
  them as some people are, their fecal matter can
  aggravate your allergic symptoms.

• Dust doesnt look great, and if found in
  significant amounts, can irritate the respiratory
  tract and even penetrate the lungs. To help keep
  your home dust-free, why not hire a cleaning
  service and let them use their dust-busting
  techniques to keep the air inside your home as
  clean and healthy as possible.
