Scrubbyman™ Quick Tip

Typical glass and multi-surface cleaners contain abrasives and

chemicals (i.e. ammonia or ethanol) that will damage LCD and Plasma TV and com-puter screens. Paper towels and rough rags

can also cause damage. Before cleaning, always unplug electrical devices.

Many manufacturers recommend dusting these screens with a microfiber cloth.

If heavier cleaning is necessary, specialty cleaners can be used. Always check manufacturers in-structions before cleaning. When using a solu-tion, spray the microfiber to dampen, do not

spray cleaners directly on the surface. Wiping in a consistent motion and

pattern can help eliminate any streaks.

Dust contains

many different microscopic par-

ticles. Many of these items can be hazard-

ous to the health of in-dividuals, including

VOCs, allergens, viruses and

bacteria.

Dust is composed of many particles includ-ing dead skin cells, fabric fibers, pet dander, pollen, decaying organic matter, residue from cleaning chemicals, pollutants, bacteria, mold, fungi, viruses, dust mites and dust mite excrement as well as dirt and debris tracked in from the outdoors.

Not only can dust make areas look dirty, but it can also cause scratch-

ing and damage to wood, glass and other surfaces. Dust

on surfaces and in the air poses a risk to individuals

with allergies and other breathing problems as well.

Dust also contains mi-crobes such as bacteria, viruses, mold and fungi, all of which can be haz-ardous to the health of in-dividuals. In some cases, they can even be deadly.

All areas should be dusted regularly to help

keep surfaces clean and free from mar-

ring and to improve air quality.

Dust before vacuuming.Start dusting from the top

and work towards the bottom.Work clockwise around a room

to avoid missing anything.Improper use of furniture oil and polish can

lead to build-up or clouding of wood surfaces.Use slipcovers on upholstered furniture.

Keep windows closed to prevent dust and debris from blowing in.

Check and maintain air filters.Placing industrial-strength outdoor and indoor mats

at every entryway.

Top 8 Dusting Tips

Feather dusters are ideal for irregular surfaces, small spaces and for dusting between and around delicate

items. Fine, soft ostrich feathers are the best choice for dusters and have the most surface

area to grab dust particles. Feath-er dusters hold dust and brush it off

of items, which is why it is important to work from the top down when cleaning a room.

Lambswool dusters are great for dust-ing both irregular and flat surfaces. With

extendable handles, these dusters reach door frames, ceilings,

baseboards, shelves and large furniture.

Polywool dusters are anti-aller-genic and washable. These dusters are electrostati-cally charged to attract

dust, dirt and debris and hold it in until washed.

Microfiber cloths are a great choice for dusting and cleaning. The split fibers cre-ate a positive charge that grabs onto dust and dirt without damaging surfaces. Microfiber is Safe for dry dusting hardwoods and for dusting and cleaning

without chemicals or oils. From a tightly-woven smooth cloth to a looser, heavier

texture, there is a selection of cloths to fit your dusting and cleaning needs.

Microfiber dusters have the same great qualities as

cloths but can be used in harder

to reach areas, like ceiling fans, shelves, and irregular surfaces.

There are many different types

of dusting tools, each with their own special features and appropriate uses.

Choosing the correct tool for the job is important for getting rid of

dust properly and protecting surfaces while maintaining

the safest environment possible.

Dust Mite Facts

Dust mites are microscopic organisms that feed on decaying skin

cells found in bedding, carpet, upholstery and dust. In fact, a good portion of what is considered “dust” is

actually made up of the fecal matter and carcasses of dust mites. The fecal matter contains an allergen that is blamed

for allergies, hay fever, dermatitis, rhinitis and asthma.

There is no way to completely eliminate dust mites from an environment, but regular and thorough

maintenance can keep populations down and help al-leviate symptoms. Dust mites cannot be see with less

than 10x magnification, but they are everywhere.

Washing fabrics regularly in HOT water, vacuum-ing, cleaning carpets and upholstery and dusting

regularly are the best ways to handle dust mites. Dust accumulates on smooth and cluttered surfaces and

provides a habitat and breeding ground for the dust mites. The best way to insure a clean

surface is to use a damp microfiber dusting cloth to clean the

surface.

When dusting overhead items, always wear safety eyewear to prevent dust and debris from

falling in your eyes.

Always unplug electrical devices before cleaning or dusting.

When dusting high areas, use dusters with extendable handles to avoid climbing,

reaching and falling accidents.
