How can I prevent dust accumulation without excessive cleaning?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the intense heat wave we had last month, I noticed a layer of fine dust collecting on everything in my living room near the windows. Even though I try to keep the curtains closed during the day to block out the sun, it seems like the air is just too dry and full of particles. How can I prevent this from happening again without using excessive cleaning products?

To tackle the dust issue in your living room without going overboard with cleaning products, there's a few things you could do. First up, it’s essential to understand that the dryness and presence of particles in the air are common challenges faced by many in the UAE, especially during summer when we experience intense heat waves.
To start off, keeping your windows closed is indeed a good practice but consider investing in high-quality window blinds or curtains made from materials like polyester which can filter out dust while still letting light through. These days, there’s also advanced technology available such as smart air purifiers and humidifiers that can help maintain the right humidity level and clean the air. A practical tip would be to use microfiber cloths for cleaning; they’re great at trapping dust without leaving residue behind. Dusting regularly but gently with these cloths can keep your surfaces free from accumulation. It’s also a good idea to use a vacuum cleaner with HEPA filters, which are particularly effective in capturing fine particles. In addition to these measures, consider the placement of plants around the house. Not only do they add beauty and oxygenate the air, but some plants like spider plants or peace lilies can naturally help reduce indoor dust levels. Lastly, it’s a good idea to check for any potential sources of dust inside your home. This could include areas where construction materials might have been stored, recent renovations that may have disturbed settled dust, or even pests that could be causing an increase in debris. If you find yourself struggling with persistent issues despite taking these steps, it might be worth having a professional environmental inspection done by a company like ours, Saniservice.
