Do you ever think about how itā€™s called dusting instead of de-dusting?

I didnā€™t but now Iā€™m going to stumble over that phrase for the rest of my life as my mouth says it the right way and my brain tells me itā€™s wrong.

Unlessā€¦ @simply_surprise@lemmygrad.ml when you dust, do you dust or do you dust? That could explain things.

You mean Iā€™m not supposed to be spreading it with a flour sifter?

That explains a lot, honestly.

We invested in a roomba-style robot that has actually been fantastic. Less for the ā€œI am lazy and donā€™t want to hoover my flatā€ and more for its ability to reach places I canā€™t easily. Keeps under the sofa/bed/etc pretty tidy. Also change the A/C filter regularly never hurts.

Whenā€™s the last time that you changed your furnace filter?

If you donā€™t have access to that, you tape a filter to a box fan to purify the air. Or go for broke and get a dyson filter / heater.

Also take a moist cloth and wipe down everything once a week, then sweep/mop your floor.

to add to this, do you live near a construction site or a busy street? This can greatly increase the level of dust. if not, get fresh air circulating through windows if possible and avoid lighting candles or smoking inside.

I vacuumed under the bed this week. Highly recommend it but maybe close your eyes so you donā€™t see how much dust is actually under there!
