Brilio.net - Dust that accumulates on the surface of tables, cupboards, or wooden cabinets often makes the atmosphere of the house feel uncomfortable. Even though it has been wiped every day, it is not uncommon for fine dust to reappear and stick without permission.
This condition is not only about aesthetics, but also concerns the cleanliness and health of the occupants of the house. Excessive exposure to dust can worsen indoor air quality and trigger mild to severe respiratory disorders.
The factors that cause dust to appear are varied, ranging from poor air circulation, the location of the house near a major road, to the presence of thick curtains and carpets that easily store dust particles. If not handled immediately, dust will be increasingly difficult to clean and can reduce the durability of furniture.
Cleaning dust thoroughly is not enough with just water or a wet cloth. It needs a mixture of certain ingredients so that the dust is completely removed and does not easily return.
This alternative method was shared via a TikTok video by the account @casanaf__ which provides a simple but quite effective recipe. Simply by mixing two cheap and easy-to-find kitchen ingredients , you can make your own cleaning fluid at home.

How to make it is quite easy, mix 200 ml of water with five drops of olive oil and one teaspoon of dish soap. If you don't have olive oil, you can also replace it with baby oil which has a similar function.
After all the ingredients are mixed and stirred until dissolved, pour the liquid into a spray bottle to make it easier to apply. How to use it is also very simple, just spray it on the surface of a dirty, dusty table and then wipe it with a clean cloth.

This method can be used to clean other furniture , such as TV stands, wooden cabinets, and even wooden sofa parts. The surface of the furniture will look cleaner, shinier, and feel smoother after being cleaned using this liquid.
Interestingly, this spray does not leave marks like regular water which often makes furniture look wet or stained. On the contrary, the final result of cleaning using this solution looks neater and shinier.

If cleaned regularly every one to two weeks, the surface of the table and other furniture will be free from rapid dust accumulation. The house will feel fresher and cleaner without having to wipe every day.
This method is not only cost-effective but also practical because it uses materials that are already available at home. In addition, the furniture becomes more well-maintained and durable because it is not often exposed to water that can damage the wood surface.
