Clean shutters lightly once a week to prevent heavy dust buildup.
For very dusty environments, a quick vacuum every few days keeps shutters looking fresh.
Keep a dedicated “shutter sock” handy for quick touch-ups.
Variations:
Use a pair of tongs wrapped with microfiber cloths to clean both sides of the slats at once.
Add a few drops of lemon essential oil to your cleaning spray for a fresh scent and extra dust resistance.
For wooden shutters, use a wood-safe cleaner instead of vinegar.
FAQ:
Q: Can I use just a dry cloth to clean shutters?
A: Yes, but using a slightly damp cloth captures more dust and prevents it from flying around.
Q: Is vinegar safe for all shutter materials?
A: Vinegar is safe for most surfaces but avoid it on untreated wood; use a wood-specific cleaner instead.
