Can i ask why? Gloves and a mask would be my suggestion! Or get someone else to do it:D I tend to hoover my dry dust up anyway.

LOL.... I have a MASSIVE allergy to dust and dust mites so ive been banned by my consultant....! Makes getting rid of it much more difficult!

Will perhaps try a mask or a scarf or something

My LO has a really bad allergy to dust mites too! They think it may be what triggers her pneumonia. I bought her a new mattress/duvet/pillow and got a really good hoover. Got rid of our lovely rabbit too:(

Monday - Sitting Room and Hallway ALL DONE

Going to potter about in the garden and enjoy the lovely weather. I need to plant some sunflower seeds as I foolishly took up a bet with next door to see who can grow the tallest one lol Ah well nothing like abit of healthy competition.

Ive also made all the beds and straightened all the bedrooms, cleaned the bathroom and downstairs loo, hooved from top to bottom so all thats left to do really this week is to get that kitchen sorted which i should be able to do this evening Wooohooo I love being on a roll.

This evening I MUST:-

Do the ironing
Pack for our weekend away
Clean the worktops
Make some cookies
Write a list of food to buy to take with us on holiday.

Hope everyone enjoys their day

wssla00 could you not try dusting with a wet cloth and a mask and gloves so that the wet cloth picks up the dust rather than the usual method of dry dusting that puts it into the air?

Could you not use a damp cloth that way it will clog together on the cloth and you wont be wafting the dust round everywhere
