Cape Town’s dry summer genuinely increases indoor dust, and understanding why helps you adjust your cleaning routine accordingly.
Why summer increases dust
Dry air, low rainfall and the strong south-easter wind mean more dust and grit making its way indoors than during the wetter winter.
Areas most affected
Bedrooms and living rooms, with their fabric surfaces, show this increase most visibly.
Adjusting your routine
More frequent dusting and vacuuming during summer months helps keep pace with the seasonal increase. See our weekly cleaning service for consistent attention year-round.
