How often should you dust?
Dust everywhere once a week. Start at the top and work your way down.
Built-up dust makes house dust mites worse and can irritate your airways. Dusting weekly keeps the rest of your cleaning light. If you have pets or an allergy, do it more often.
- Start at the top (cupboards, shelves) and work downwards
- Use a slightly damp microfibre cloth
- Do edges and gaps separately
- Vacuum up loose dust on the floor
