What is the fastest and easiest way to clean mini blinds?

Answer 1

Depends what type of vacumn you have, I use the brush attachment and vacumn them

Answer 2

I haven't tried this, but I have pondered it, maybe you could put it in the dishwasher and pull it out after a few minutes.  This might work for smaller blinds.  This works well for disinfecting bird paraphernalia.  I just don't use dishwasher soap, as birds are very sensitive and it may be too harsh on the items.

Answer 3

Close them all one way as far as they'll go. Dust with a feather duster. Then, open them and re-close them all the "other" way, and use the feather duster again.

Regular household dust has a greasy component, since it's composed mostly of human skin flakes. If you wet it, it makes a sticky mess that's difficult to be rid of, but a dry brushing makes no such mess.

Answer 4

Take them down and let them soak in the bathtub with some cleaner, then rinse them off.  Thats for a good cleaning, other than that, use the attachment on your vacuum cleaner.

Answer 5

You want clean, or just dusted off?  I pop mine out of their brackets & hang them across the towel rack in the bathtub, then hose them down with the hand-held shower head.  Sometimes it takes a brush and some spray-on household cleaner.  Do not spray the cleaner directly on the blinds, though, because it will spot.  Spray it on the brush.  Works great!

Answer 6

Well you said clean not dust .so I would put some water in the bathtub and add 1 cup of bleach ,the blinds should be covered by the water leave them there for a while, have a big towel ready to lay that blind on it .It works for me.I hope that helps!

Answer 7

They make a mini blind duster that fits in between the blinds.  I think it can be found anywhere dusters are sold.
