Spring cleaning: how easy it is to remove dust

To keep it out as much as possible, it is best to place only a few heavy curtains or thick carpets in the home. Do not place decorative objects in the open, but in display cabinets. And this is how you can remove dust:

Material

Electrostatic cloths are particularly suitable for dust on larger surfaces. It is best to use a feather duster with nylon fibers to dust books and CDs: They become statically charged through friction on the surface, which attracts the dust. For electrical appliances, it is better to use a feather duster with natural feathers, as televisions and the like are themselves statically charged.

Ceiling

Vacuum - or wrap a pillowcase around a broom to remove the dust. Place a damp sheet over upholstered furniture and give it a good beating with a carpet beater.

Radiators

Place a damp cloth underneath (or hang behind) and blow through the cracks and grooves with a hairdryer. Then put the cloth in the wash.
