    Default Cutting down on dust

    We live on a dirt road and we have not yet been able to landscape - The big scraper truck comes by every third day to level the road and then the men work the feilds all around us. I have resorted to closing my windows and doors to cut down on dust yet is must have sneaky point of entry cuz I have to dust every single morning !! My basment is so dusty that I litterally have to wipe off the weight machine to use it everyday and my folding table needs a clean towel put on evry morning. I don't know hwat to try - does anyone have any tips?? THis weekend we will be weatherstripping around every window and door. Thanks for your ideas!!

    We live in a dusty environment too Kimmee. I'm going to try either hardwood or ceramic tile floors in the main living area. I think that helps a lot. Do you have carpet? I do and am beginning to hate it b/c of the dust and yuck that lives in it.
