I am moving into my frat house in a few days and my roomate says the room is covered in thick dust, i need to buy an air purifier but i dont know which is best, i am looking to spend under $125. Also i need to know if there is any cleaning supplies or things i can use on the carpeting which is very dusty and dirty. Also the mattress in the room is dusty. Thanks for your help.
for small room and not expensive ENVIRACARE
If you can find little duster wipes called Spontex, this will cut the dust problem by more than half these little duster´s stop the dust from settling back onto your furniture. You can also use a damp cloth to wipe your furniture, The more polish you add the more dust you will collect. Air purifiers are very good , not sure which is the best one, I live in Spain so My suggestion would be off no help to you ,it would be a good idea to buy a mall vacuum, this will help also. But try look for the Spontex wipes , you won´t be sorry you bought them
first, give everything a good vacuum including the mattress, then wipe all the surfaces down with a damp cloth (put 1 spoonful of vinegar in the water). spray polish onto a duster and go over it all again, damp dust once a week and that should keep it dust free. if you can afford it rent a steam cleaner for the carpet, or buy a carpet shampoo and either use a hand shampooer or a big sponge and work it in, vacuum off when dry. I don’t know about an air purifier, can you not just open a window? hope this has been of some help.
Chances are if you are in college you have a Walmart near you… Get some microfiber cloths.. You can find them in the automotive section for 12 for $4.. They are great at removing dust/dirt w/o using chemicals…. ! Just wet or use dry and it will trap dust/dirt and they are reuseable… Just don’t use with dryer sheets or liquid fabric softner… Get yourself a vacuum and do your best to vacuum the carpet and your mattress..If I were you I would also get at Walmart a mattress cover that zips all the way around the mattress to provide a barrier between you/mattress.. God only know’s what’s happened there ! Ditto for your pillows… ! If you don’t have a regular vacuum for about $50 get yourself a shop vac.. It works really well for furniture and it does have carpeting attachments and you can use it on your car as well.. It’s cheap, masculine and good for wet spills as well as dry ! I have a CRAFTMAN 6 GAl. with attachements it’s medium sized and I use it to vacuum my furniture ! It can be put in a closet as well ! Good luck
