Why does more dust accumulate during Ramadan?« Back to Previous Page

Why does more dust accumulate during Ramadan? Well, the dusty season we experience in Dubai, especially during and after sandstorms, is a common occurrence. It's a mix of environmental factors that make cleaning up seem like a never-ending task, even if you clean regularly.

Firstly, during Ramadan, many folks stay indoors for longer periods, making it harder to keep the air fresh and free from dust bunnies. With air conditioning on full blast, the cool, dry air tends to draw in more particles that can settle into your furniture and floor surfaces. The combination of lower humidity levels and the fact that windows are often shut tight during these hot days means there’s less natural ventilation to help keep dust at bay.

Then you have the sandstorms. They’re a notorious contributor to increased dust levels, especially after they pass through. The fine particles can settle deep into fabrics, upholstery, and carpets, making it harder to clean them out with just a quick swipe of a duster or vacuuming.

To tackle this, regular cleaning becomes even more crucial during Ramadan. I recommend establishing a daily dusting routine focusing on frequently touched surfaces like TV remotes, light switches, and doorknobs. Using microfiber cloths can help trap dust better than traditional paper towels. Vacuum carpets thoroughly, paying extra attention to areas under furniture where dust bunnies tend to gather.

For deeper cleaning, deep-cleaning services might be worth considering. Dubai’s climate and the sandstorms mean that sometimes professional cleaning is necessary to remove stubborn dirt and grime from your home. We at Saniservice offer a range of solutions including carpet cleaning, upholstery care, and general house cleaning. You can give us a call on 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com for more details.

Remember, maintaining cleanliness is not just about aesthetics but also about health. Dust particles can carry allergens that might exacerbate respiratory issues, especially in the dusty conditions of Ramadan and post-sandstorm environments.

So, while it may seem like a challenge to keep your living room free from dust bunnies during Ramadan, with some extra attention and possibly professional help, you can still enjoy a clean and healthy home.
