Half the dust just goes into the air and resettles elsewhere. It seems like I am making the situation worse.
How can I wipe the dust in a way so as to avoid just pushing it around so much?
I did some web searches but none of them seem to have much helpful advice on this.


My wife uses an ostrich feather brush. It carries an electrostatic charge that holds the dust.
About these, how do you ‘clear’ the brush of the accumulated dust?
You can wash it off. Just hold the duster under a tap and run cold water over it.
