I like the idea of using an odd sock! I have also heard to use an old pillowcase. This way much of the fly away dust is contained inside the pillowcase!

Thanks for visiting my blog!

Christine – I have a mictofober cloth – I never thought about using it for this job. Thanks for your tip.

Good idea. I usually use those microfiber cloths and some spray I got at the store where I bought the ceiling fans. It’s supposed to help keep the dust from being attracted and seems to work, but I have no idea what’s in it. Vinegar is a great natural cleaner.

Thanks for the tip!

Thanks for visiting, Crystal. My vacuum doesn’t have that attachment. For now I’ll have to be satisfied with sock-manual labour.

I use that weird little round brush attachment on my vacuum cleaner to do the ceiling fans. It brushes off the dirt and sucks it up at the same time. It also works perfectly for my return air duct grates.
