I was dusting my room and started wondering how the duster keeps the dust. I would think that it would just sweep the dust onto the floor so I looked at it closer and saw that there were all these fibers. These would enclose the dust when they pick it instead of just sweeping it onto the floor which is the simplest thing but makes a huge difference when cleaning.
