Everyone eventually will fall victim to dust bunnies. They can occur almost everywhere and can be difficult to find and clean. In some cases, these not so furry pests can damage areas of your home or even cause allergies. Here is how to clean dust bunnies:
What Are Dust Bunnies?
Before you know how to clean them, you must know what a dust bunny is. Simply, it’s just accumulated dust or dirt that comes together due to static electricity and grows as more dust is produced. It isn’t all dust either, it can be a mixture of dust, pet hair, dirt, dead skin cells, spider webs and other debris.
How They Can Harm Your Home
Usually dust bunnies are harmless, but when they accumulate, they can harm your home. For electronics, dust bunnies can sit on top of devices and cause them to overheat, or get into the device itself and clog them. For humans, dust bunnies irritate allergies or sinuses.
How to Get Rid of Them
The most effective way to get rid of dust bunnies is to clean and dust your home frequently. This will eliminate any chance of dust bunnies growing or spreading. It is ideal to dust your home at least once a week. If you own pets, it may be a good idea to dust and vacuum two or three times a week. It is also important to dust everywhere, including blinds, baseboards, ceiling fans and areas that you may not look at everyday. This is where dust bunnies like to hide.
