All homeowners will know that one of the worst chores when it comes to cleaning is having to dust – but there’s now a nifty £3 product that makes it a ‘breeze’
Anything that makes cleaning just that little bit easier – we’re all ears.
Homeowners will all be familiar with the painstaking task of dusting their homes, but shoppers have been raving about a simple tool that makes dusting a “breeze”.
Dusting is a chore no one wants to have to do, and if left, it can start to pile up quickly – but this £3 “must-have sponge” makes life much easier and claims to wipe away dust in seconds. It’s cleverly designed with ripples which means it holds the dust rather than releasing it into the air to fly away.
Called the Damp Duster and available on Amazon, it can be used all over the home – and can also remove pollen and pet hair.
Its versatile design means you can use it on hard-to-clean areas such as blinds, bookshelves, lamps, vents, baseboards, railings and mirrors, and all you need to do is dampen it before use. While it clings to the dust, you can easily wash it – which means it’s environmentally friendly too. It’s also had some pretty positive reviews online, as shoppers have given it an impressive 4.5 out of five.
Reviews have praised the product, as one shopper wrote: “When I purchased this product, I had my doubts. However, it is really fantastic. It is made out of a slightly rubbery, but spongy material which picks up and holds an incredible amount of dust, while still washing the dust off easily. It is ‘squishy’ enough that I can fit it in between blinds or smaller spaces, without it losing its shape or ripping.”
A second wrote: “What an incredible product. Cats and warm weather = relentless shedding, and I purchased these to keep on top of that without wasting electricity using the vacuum cleaner. They are useful for loads of everyday tasks.”
You can buy the Scrub Daddy Damp Duster, which is available on Amazon for just £3.69.
Another cleaning hack one woman shared was how to easily clean skirting boards. According to one cleaning fan, there’s a simple way you can clean your skirting boards in seconds – and it’ll keep them clean for months before needing a touch-up.
A TikTok user who posts under the username @mommapeaches5 claimed that all you need to keep your skirting boards clean is one common cleaning item that’s used for a different part of the house – window cleaner. The woman, from the US, said that by spraying the boards with window cleaner, you can wipe away all grime with nothing but a paper towel.
She said: “Spray down all your baseboards with window cleaner and start wiping it up with some paper towels. Oh my god, just like brand spanking new.”
