We gave up on dusting the house. You can not win that battle!

That was one of the first things we noticed when we moved out here years ago. It is VERY dry and dusty. Just the way it is. The plus side is that on warm days, you can hang your laundry or wet towels outside and they're dry in minutes!

Dust once a year whether it needs it or not.

We have an air filtration system that captures much of the dust. That said, our home is dusted and vacuumed once a week.

I try to dust once every other week, but sometimes it is only once a month. I vacuum about once a week, but most of that may be because of our cats and dogs..

Why dust, gophins?

It only returns the next day!

It's not only that it is more dusty here, it is also a different kind of dust that sticks on the furniture. I try to dust once a week.

Just don't leave them out too long or they will stand on edge by themselves
