What Is Dust?

Dust seems to accumulate as if by magic. Have you ever wondered what it actually is? Scientists tell us that it is actually a mix of many different substances, some coming from outside and some from inside our homes. About 60% comes from outside: soil, pollutants, smoke, pollens are major contributors. Inside the home much comes from flaked off skin cells from us and our pets. Dust also gets added to from fibers in our clothes and from fabrics in the house, as well cooking oil, broken down food crumbs, and dust mites that grow naturally in damp areas like bedding. A particularly noxious source is construction materials in our homes decomposing. From all these sources, it is easy to see that a healthy home requires us to keep dust under control.
