The $9 Kmart hack professional cleaner uses to make dusting the entire home easier

Professional cleaner Sara Allan has revealed her top three dusters for cleaning the home after using them on the job over the years.

The Housekeeping Heroes NSW owner is a fan of the $5.98 Mr Clean microfibre duster and the $5.49 All Set cobweb extension broom from Bunnings.

But if she was to recommend just one to have at home it would be a $9 Kmart purchase.

"It would definitely be the Kmart two-in-one mop head attachment for a couple of reasons; it's very cost effective at $4 for the extendable telescopic pole and $5 for the two-in-one mop head, so for $9 it really is a bargain and will last a very long time – I have had mine for about five years and still in perfect condition," she tells 9honey Living.

"The microfibre head is easy to remove and clean in the washing machine, the telescopic pole extends and is easy to clean high reach areas without having to use a step ladder," Allan adds.

"Extremely easy to use to dust all ceiling crevices, fans, exhausts and traps dust/buildup with ease. The flat side can be used to effectively dust and clean skirting boards and ceiling crevices as the user can simply spray a multipurpose solution directly onto the pad and press up against a ceiling crevice, skirting board or wall."

These kinds of areas might not be as noticeable to the naked eye as dust on coffee tables and shelves but they do build up a lot of dust so they require regular cleaning.

Allan recommends cleaning walls every three months while ceiling fans, skirting boards and ceiling crevices should be done fortnightly.

There is one exception, though, with skirting boards and ceiling crevices needing a weekly clean for anyone who "lives in an area where a lot of construction work is happening".

Once you've finished your cleaning session with the Kmart two-in-one mop head you will need to clean it. Allan recommends removing it and putting it in the washing machine on a standard cycle.

It's the same cleaning process for the second of her other favourite dusters, the Mr Clean microfibre duster.

For the third duster, the cobweb broom, you can simply hose down the bristles when finished and set aside to dry thoroughly.

Though the Kmart mop head can be used for ceiling fans, Allen says the cobweb broom can actually be more useful for this task.

"This one works extremely well for fan blades as we simply shape it to the specific fan blade we are trying to clean, and it cleans all four sides of a fan blade in one simple back and forth motion," she says.

As for dusting surfaces like shelves, Allan uses a wet microfibre cloth to wipe the surface followed by a dry microfibre cloth "to go over the surface a second time to ensure the surface is cleaned and dust free".

To reduce the amount of dust in the home she advised vacuuming daily, limiting clutter, creating a weekly and fortnightly cleaning routine, cleaning air conditioner filters every two weeks and dusting surfaces from top to bottom.
