- Use smooth blinds or shades instead of fabric curtains when you can. If you use curtains, buy washable ones. Wipe blinds weekly with a clean, damp cloth. Wash curtains monthly.
- Clean and dry window frames and sills regularly. The dust that collects there is full of pollen, mildew and dust mites.
- Clean ceiling fans and light fixtures at least monthly, using a clean, damp cloth.
- Vacuum or use a damp cloth to wipe down air vents weekly.
- Use washable rugs at doors to catch dust, pollen and mold spores. Wash rugs weekly.
- Dust hard furniture weekly.
- Vacuum upholstered furniture regularly.
- Vacuum floors and damp mop at least weekly.
- Keep toys, books, knick-knacks and stuffed animals in closed cabinets or plastic containers.
- Use filters over air conditioning and heating vents. If possible, change them regularly.
- Use smooth, easy-to-clean furniture, if possible.
