Let's settle this - always dust from top to bottom. Start with high shelves and work down to your floors. And don't just move dust around! Use a damp cloth or a duster that actually traps particles. Pro tip: a drop of fabric softener in your dusting spray can help reduce static, keeping dust from resettling as quickly.

If anyone's into making their own cleaning products, here's a dope recipe for DIY dusting spray: 1 cup water, 1/4 cup vinegar (cuts through grime!), 2 tsp olive oil (polishes), and 10-15 drops of essential oil (smells nice, I dig lemon). Mix it, spray it on a cloth, and boom – dust be gone without the chemical nasties.

Great advice for the most part. Just to add, microfiber cloths work wonders. They are designed to grab and hold particles thanks to their tiny fibers. And always remember to shake out or wash your dusters and cloths after you're done with them—otherwise, you just spread that dust right back into the air next time.

Attention everyone! In addition to dusting top to bottom, don't forget to clean your ceiling fan blades and light fixtures. It's an often-overlooked place that collects a ton of dust. Also, if you are dusting electronics, make sure to use an antistatic wipe to prevent damage! Lastly, don't ignore your vents - vacuum them regularly or you're just circulating dust every time you turn on the heat or AC.

Totally agree about dusting from top to bottom, tried the other way round once and ended up having to redo everything! Lesson learned. Gonna try that fabric softener trick, didn't know about it, seems like it could be a game changer. Anyone else got any unconventional dusting hacks?
