I am sick and tired of dusting. 
I seem to be doing it all the time and I was wondering how often all other old stylers have to dust?

Whever it looks as though it needs it
Unfortunately my house is 200 years old so it seems to need dusting a lot more than a modern one does. Organised people are just too lazy to look for things

I dust with polish about once a week and inbetween I use a microfibre cloth.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Quick Grabbit, Freebies, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning and the UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

Whenever the kids write "Clean Me" in the dust on the TV screen. Honestly? Every few weeks.The ability of skinny old ladies to carry huge loads is phenomenal. An ant can carry one hundred times its own weight, but there is no known limit to the lifting power of the average tiny eighty-year-old Spanish peasant grandmother.0

Do it when it needs it.
The days of washing on Monday, bedrooms on Tuesday, scouring the front doorstep on Friday are long gone, surely. :eek: Microfibre cloths are good, but you can have a really quick whip round with one of those plastic thingies with an arm that come with an antistatic woolly type cover ( sorry can't remember what they're called, Sainsburys etc sell them 
). You can dust a room in a couple of minutes with them and you can get away with washing the woolly things a few times before you bin them.
Now............I'm typing this and getting slowly snowed in ! Any OS tips :rotfl:0 -
Ours is done weekly with polish, then topped up with a damp microfibre cloth. We get so much dust its unbelievable!! I think this weather doesnt help, as the sun is so low...you can see every speck:eek: Have wooden slated blinds and wooden floors so theres nowhere to attract the dust. Floors are done daily with a californian mop and blinds done twice a week.

I dust when it needs doing, probably once every 2 weeks. The T.V gets done every couple of days.0
