Cleaning Tips to Reduce Household Dust -

By the DIY experts of The Family Handyman Magazine

Reduce dust in your house with these eight easy steps to keep the dust bunnies from multiplying. We'll talk about better furnace filters and proper vacuuming to clean closets, cushions and more.


Overview

The solution to most household problems is to attack the source. But you can't eliminate the sources of household dust. You can't even do much to reduce them, because more than 90 percent of household dust comes from people and fabric. Our bodies constantly shed tiny flakes of skin. Our clothes, bedding and furnishings constantly shed barely visible fibers. These flakes and fibers float on the slightest air currents and settle on every surface in your house. In a spot sheltered from air movement, the particles stay put. In other areas, they constantly rise and settle as doors swing open and people pass by.
Even if fighting dust is a battle you can never completely win, you can save a lot of time and energy with these dust-busting strategies.
