What could be causing the dust buildup?« Back to Previous Page

The dust buildup in your son's bedroom could be due to several factors. In Dubai and the UAE, we often experience high humidity levels especially during summer months, which can lead to increased dust particles. Additionally, the recent heavy dust storm might have been a significant contributor. Dust storms can carry fine particulates that settle into carpet fibers over time.

Another possibility is poor ventilation in your home. With the increase in air conditioning usage and the sealing of homes for energy efficiency, it's important to ensure there are still pathways for fresh air circulation. Lack of adequate airflow can lead to moisture accumulation and dust settling on surfaces.

Furthermore, the baseboards acting as a sort of 'dust trap' could be collecting dirt over time if cleaning practices haven't been consistent. It’s not uncommon for households to overlook these areas when cleaning, especially hard-to-reach spots like under them.

To clean this effectively, start by using a vacuum cleaner with a hose attachment to reach under the baseboards and into the carpet fibers. A HEPA filter on your vacuum can help capture fine particulates more efficiently. For deeper cleaning, you might consider hiring a professional service that specializes in deep carpet cleaning using steam extraction methods.

Given the importance of indoor air quality, especially for children’s health, it would be prudent to have a professional environmental inspection if this issue persists or worsens.
