Is fine sandstorm dust harmful indoors?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy sandstorm last week, I noticed a fine dust collecting on every surface of my bedroom windowsill. It’s particularly noticeable on the blinds and even on the furniture inside. The dust seems to be quite fine and almost powdery, which is concerning since it’s just starting to accumulate after just one storm. Has anyone else experienced this issue in Dubai, or are there any tips for dealing with desert dust in homes?
