You need to vacuum regularly to get rid of dust.

Sometimes a bit of dust isn't that noticeable, but after a while, when it's a lot of it, then the whole house looks dirty.

Here are some places you need to check first.

Floors

Dust tends to settle on floors, especially in areas with high foot traffic or where particles are easily tracked in from outside. 

Upholstered furniture

Fabrics on sofas, chairs, and cushions can attract and hold onto dust particles.

Curtains and drapes

Curtains and drapes can act as dust catchers, especially if they are not frequently washed or cleaned.

Bedding

Bed sheets, pillowcases, and mattresses can harbor dust mites and accumulate dust over time. 

Electronics and appliances

Electronic devices, such as televisions, computers, and stereos, as well as household appliances like telephones, can attract and accumulate dust due to static electricity. 

Bookshelves and shelves

Dust can settle on surfaces of bookshelves and open shelves, particularly on top of books, decorative items, or neglected areas. 

Ceiling fans and light fixtures

Ceiling fans and light fixtures often collect dust on their blades, globes, or covers. 

Air vents and ducts

Dust can accumulate in air vents and ducts, especially if they are not regularly cleaned or maintained.
