Oh, if my neighbor could see how much dust is on the flip side of my ceiling fan blades! Instead of hauling in my aluminum ladder to dust, I discoverd a simple and ingenius tip over at

The Family Handyman and constructed my own DIY ‘high ceiling duster’ out of an extension pole and a paint roller, both supplies I had on hand. The only thing I had to buy were dryer sheets.
Simply attach your paint roller to the end of an extension pole, wrap the fresh roller with dryer sheets and rubberband it on at each side of the roller. The dust sticks to the dryer sheet instead of falling off on your bed.
Well that takes care of the fan blades…
I’m working on an idea for a duster that will reach my 10 -12 foot ceilings.
Where the verticle wall meets the ceiling, a lot of dust & cob webs collect there… If I could figure out a way to attach a duster of some kind to an extension pole, I would not have all the dust & cob webs collecting there…
If anyone has has ideas, please do not be shy with them.
