Could be cloths , and any type of tool, what ever.What do you find that actually removes the dust?

@goldensrbest I bought the brand Sladust on Amazon.  I have a hand held duster and a dry mop.  I have to say these work wonderfully!  They actually hold the dust and don't spread it around. They shake out clean.  It took me years to find the perfect duster, I love the brand, they are nice quality.

Best duster I ever had was a very soft, well-seasoned old diaper.

Scrub Daddy has a damp duster that has good reviews.  Shows the dust rinsing off and can be reused like a sponge.

 

I mostly use swiffer and sometimes a micro-fiber cloth.

 

For baseboards, I just put on an old sock and clean with my foot!

My mom used to do that.  They were always gray no matter if freshly washed!

If you're referring to dusting furniture, etc., I use Pledge and an old cotton soft t-shirt. In between using Pledge, I just use another soft t-shirt. For light fixtures, I use a microfiber dusting wand. I use a damp cloth to wipe down indoor window sills. On base trim, I use a dry mop that has a large microfiber head with an edge that can also dust the trim.

 

I no longer use a Swiffer to dry mop my floors. I use a dry mop that I bought on Amazon, and it does a great job.

 

To dust my drapes, I use an extension tool on my tank vacuum. Some decorative items go into the sink with mild Dawn soapy water & then rinse. I have a large clear hand-blown glass vase about 36" tall that I put in the shower 2-3 times per year, and a silver tree branch in a base that I pour a pitcher of water over in the driveway.

Lightly spray a cloth with a solution of vinegar and water.  Dusters of all kinds really just scatter dust. And they do nothing for glass or ceramic.

I use these little dusters damp with water. Comes in a 2-pack. The duster part comes off so you can throw it in the wash. Replacement dusters are also available separately in packs of 3.  I buy them from MicrofiberWholesale dot com. Free shipping both ways, no minimum.
