I have white wood slatted window blinds throughout the house. What's the easiest and most efficient method to get them dusted off?

    Use a dust catching rag and a tongs. Or a hand swifter.

    The hand Swiffers/dusters work great! Or you can use the brush attachment on your vacuum-close the blinds to vacuum and then reverse to vacuum.

    If you have an attachment for your vacuum cleaner you can remove dust with the vacuum and then wipe them down with a wet washcloth.

    What a chore these are! I finally purchased a lambswool duster that works great! It actually grabs the dust that most other dusters just push around into the air. And NO feathers floating around! LOL

    For regular cleaning I just open my blinds to where i can fit the duster thru the blinds, then spray the duster w/ a teensy bit of Pledge furniture polish & dust away. Then twice a year during spring & fall cleaning I'll give them a good proper wet cleaning using a bucketful of warm sudsy water ( just a couple drops of DAWN ) & a cotton rag. Ta Dah! :)
