How to Reduce Dust Around Your TV
While you can’t eliminate dust completely, you can minimize buildup with a few simple steps:
- Use a microfiber cloth designed for screens
- Turn the TV off before cleaning to reduce static
- Increase indoor humidity with a humidifier
- Vacuum regularly, especially near the TV stand
- Clean vents and cables, where dust often collects
Avoid using household cleaners or paper towels on the screen, as they can damage the coating.
The Bottom Line
Your TV attracts dust because of static electricity, heat, air movement, and surrounding materials—not because your home is dirtier than others. With regular cleaning and a few environmental adjustments, you can keep your screen and entertainment area looking cleaner for longer.
Dust may be inevitable—but it doesn’t have to take over your TV.
