If you find yourself
getting itchy or sneezing a lot, then maybe it's time to get your
broom sticks, feather dusters, and vacuum cleaner on the ready, go
around your home, and hunt down those bad dust
bunnies.
Hair (yours or your
pet's), dust, dirt, soil, and all other kinds of debris could get
really frustrating, especially when they start to build up. There are
a bunch of dust hot spots where all the dust bunnies like to conjure
and summon more of them. When cleaning, it's important to get
everything cleaned up and to leave no survivors. One particular area
you should put some focus on is the rug.
Being so close to the
ground and made of fabric or similar materials, rugs can gather a ton
of dust and dirt. Rugs are tricky to clean because even though you
can wash them up with water, doing so could make colors fade or
damage the material.
Vacuuming regularly is a
great way to keep the dust in rugs at bay, and you can also hang them
up outdoors and beat at them to get the dust off. If there are
stains, or if you want a more effective cleaning, you can also look
for cleaners who offer encapsulation methods wherein they use sprays
to create polymers that cling to the dirt and vacuum them off.
With thorough cleaning,
you can say goodbye to your allergies and hasta
la vista to those dust
bunnies.
