You would think that hairspray would collect dust! Wow I am going to try that as we live in a real dusty area. If I don't dust every day I can write my name on anything!

ok,14 year old thread, but google search led me to this thread, I was searching to see if there was anything more clever than a yardstick and a microfiber cloth for under our slide bed in the RV.
OK...did anyone try the hairspray on the fan blades? No one ever reported back

on vacation, currently in Wickenburg AZ, a long way from rainy washington weather.

Yes! I learned this trick when I was working part time as a resort maid years ago. The fans were sprayed with Aqua Net . It has to be no additives in the spray so may be hard to find plain old hairspray now. I use the No Static spray to keep dust from sticking to the fan blades. My fans are high, 12 ft ceilings.I can tell the difference when using the static spray.

Oh I hate ceiling fans. that is one big reason. I could do without them myself.

Not necessarily for ceiling fans or under the bed but I recently came upon a potion to discourage dust from furniture. To me it really works.
mix 2 cups water, 1 tablespoon olive oil, a quarter cup vinegar, a couple drops of Dawn and some
eaaential oil if you want. Shake up and use on furniture. Amazingly I can go over 2 weeks before dust appears on my cherry furniture. I have used it on the polyurethane finished wood floors and it works great. Not sticky, not slippery, doesn't attract dirt. But must wipe right up because of water.

Or try wrapping a scrap of batting around the end of the yard stick or broom handle for a duster.
