I dust my furniture on a regular basis, but in less than a complete day, I can see the dust forming again. I've tried anti-static cloths, sprays, whatever. I can't seem to repel the dust. I did see something on the Rachel Ray show a few days ago, but forgot what was suggested.
I'd appreciate anything someone might offer. In a few days, my furniture looks as though it was never dusted over a 2-week period.

We live in dusty TEXAS..If you don't dust everyday here its gonna build up..

The one thing I do is put pretty southwest design table toppers ,southwest horse blankets on and pretty table cloths on ..

These help on cutting down on the dust and i can once a week take them to the window and shake them out.....

The only way to NOT dust furniture is to not have furniture...heheheheh

Is there a spray or a way to help control Dust mites? Is there a spray or a way to help control Dust mites?

Yes! Try allergycontrol.com , and go to the carpet care section. They sell powders that can be mixed with water to help kill off dustmites. I've been using the Dustmitex for a year now, and have no complaints. I'm terribley allergic to Dust mites, and my allergy doctor recomended the Allergy Control people to me. They also sell mattress and pillow covers to help out as well. Good luck!

For a road construction project, how many gallons of water per mile/acre are needed to control fugitive dust?

Mountain pass setting, elevation 2000-3000 ft. Not looking for chemical palliatives or other options. Just water and how much would be required under average conditions per whatever unit of area. Any pointers in a useful direction are appreciated.

I've looked and can't find anything terribly worthwhile. It appears that UC Davis did a study on the effectiveness of water as a dust control measure years ago, and the only people that quote it online is the san juaqin valley air pollution control district. In the PDF (http://www.valleyair.org/busind/comply/ ... Packet.pdf) published by San Juaqin ... the application rate minimum is quoted as 650 gallons per acre for an unpaved traffic area, with only one application required for under 150 trips per day. Check page 20 of the PDF.

I couldn't believe SWRCB or EPA had anything about application rate.

I had my road sprayed with dust control. driver said it was tree sap lignon. but didnt know what kind trees?

What kinda trees does this come from.? smells sweet and like a barbeque

That's pretty interesting. Do you have a question?

Do you think a good business to get into be road or similar things dust control? spraying with tank truck.?

Or do you think trying a new business is dumb at this time with the economy going to get worse? or not?

I think most companies have their own equipment for this and you'll have a hard time finding enough of a market to run this type of business.

I use baby powder after my shower and am careful to put it on without making a mess but the "dust" still gets all over the bath & bedroom, even with the exhaust fan on. Can I eliminate/minimize the mess by using an air filter ? Any suggestions besides no longer using powder?

Dry yourself in the shower then apply the baby powder.....close the shower door or curtain. The dust can then be washed away with the shower head.

Augh! The little rodents are taking over! Should I sweep, or avert my eyes?

Good question.I've wrestled a few myself.don't turn your back they are vicious!they reproduce quickly.some are born mutants and have teeth.you might want to call a professional. lol

I have an indoor arena with a sand, Airfoot mix for the footing. (Airfoot is shredded shoes so it has fiber and a small amount of rubber) I wind up watering it every day, and I am hoping to hear about any products that you guys have had luck with that will cut down the watering. I need something effective, safe to be in contact with and cost effective. Thanks!

The barn where i am at just got arena rx, it works very well and is safe for the horses. Hope I helped!!!
