What do you do after a dust storm?
All you need to do after a dust storm is to clean up. Wait until the dust storm has difinitely gone. The first step is to dust inside the house. The dust and grit can remain as residue for some time, so it is best to clean up as soon as possible after the storm has well and truly gone. Don't forget to reach up high, above light fittings and so on, to get all the dust. Avoid using any water to help in the clean-up. One website suggests putting an old stocking or pantyhose over a broom head to help collect the dust. The static charge created by the friction of the pantyhose holds the dust to the material. When the pantyhose is dirty, tap it out on to newspaper. Shake cushions, mats and rugs outside. It's suggested that, because dust does not always lift easily from carpets with vacuuming, sprinkle the carpet with unprocessed wheat bran. This acts as an abrasive and attracts the dust. For a standard carpet-filled house, a kilogram is required. Use methylated spirits or white vinegar to clean windows. For cleaning wooden floors, it is suggested you use a used damp teabag with your broom. Not only will they help pick up the dust, the teabag will replace tannins in the timber and kill dust mites, too. Your clothes will also need to be shaken outside. Over a period of time, any amount of humidity combining with the dust will form rust marks on the material. In a heavy storm, dust will even have seeped through closed cupboard doors.
