Why is my room so dusty?

Afternoon guys,

My room is really dusty, I properly cleaned my room on Friday, hoovered my floor, bed, mattress. Cleaned all the surfaces, inside my PC, everything it was spotless. I was out all weekend and no one even entered my room and I came back to loads of dust.. It's always been dusty. Most things in my room being black doesn't really help but show it.

I have my windows open 24/7 as it's always really hot because the sun shines into my room and I like the fresh air.

How can I stop it from getting so dusty?

I've just cleaned the front of my blueray player and so you can see how bad it is.

Bring on the ridiculous comments

What are you cleaning the surfaces with? Many products leave a residue that attracts dust.

Just with some polish and a cloth.

do your windows open on to a busy road? Mine does and my room is always full of dust.

Nope, my room backs onto the garden and there are no busy roads round.

Is your car also covered in dust shortly after cleaning?

Try with windows closed next time you are out for the same amount of time as a test.

I don't know, I just get in my car drive it and get out. I rarely clean it. The inside never looks dusty though.

I won't be out for a weekend for a long time, It was a messy weekend

I don't know how people can live with windows closed, tho. We have all our windows open all the time, and yes, we have dust everywhere :/

But it's either that or steal air, isn't it?

I hate having my windows closed. It's horrible.

It's your deodorant / antiperspirant, start using it in the bathroom and you'll suddenly discover just how much TP dust there is in the air.

How do you guys know I use it in my room? :eek:

(Which I do)

I'll give this a go.
