If your house is like mine, you may have problems with dust. It got to the point it was so bad I thought I was just going to have to learn to look around the dust. How to get around the sneezing was going to be a little more difficult. I was really hesitant to have people over because I couldn’t seem to find anything that worked.
I tried spays, and they just made everything greasy and smelly. I tried what some people call “Microfibers” but they just seemed to push the dust around and let it fly into the air to settle again. Not only does that NOT solve my dust problem, but those methods make my boyfriends allergies go crazy!
I heard form a friend, who gets all her Microfibers form Sargent Steam, there are many kinds of Microfibers. They can be made from different material blends that vary results. This is where you have to know what to look for. She told me there are a few manufactures that make their blend with cotton and microfiber. This prevents the “cling factor.” The best way to go is a poly-blend with no cotton.
She also informed me different weaves get better results in different methods of using them. There are some cloths good for dry use and others that water is the key ingredient. She suggested a lofty weave was the way to go for dust. The tiny, star shaped fibers act like super-hungry fingers grabbing anything you run your hand over. And KEEPING it there!
Using the Dusting Microfiber Cloth from Sargent Steam, all the dust on my surfaces stuck like glue to these great cleaning secrets. I got the book shelves and table tops, the stereo and T.V. equipment, the lamps and furniture dust free in just minutes with ONE cloth.
All that’s left is to throw them in the wash and use them again and again. I don’t use fabric softener with my microfibers because the fibers get coated and loose there touch. I just use regular detergent and line-dry them.
Now, when I have guests over, I can sit and enjoy the company rather than worrying about the ghastly site under and on top of every surface in my home.
My name is Lisa, and I have been happily using Sargent Steam Microfiber for about six years now. If you’d like to see the many places in your own home that would benefit from replacing chemical with Microfibers, visit the experts.
