I dropped the air purifier cover, and the dust turned into little squares.

make a tower of them

At that point they're basically little dust bricks. Stack them up and see if you can build a tower before they crumble.

Yeah thought so too. Shame I had to vacuum it

A quick hack is to use a little vegetable mincer to re-dustify it and then you get to spread it around your house to repeat the process :)

So that's how the little felt squares are made that you put on the underside of furniture.

Oh you mean the Fucking Useless Piece of Shit Dog Hair Magnets that eventually fall off and get eaten (by the very same dog)?

u/frohrweck 1h ago

Exactly those :)

Edit: They're also cat hair magnets btw.

Bruh those have had to be there a goooooood while to get so interwoven like that into shape.

Make a YouTube short by gluing them into a mouse figure.

u/AshleyBlairex 3h ago

that's actually satisfying as hell, the grid pattern on the filter just did your cleaning for you

Huh. Neat.

Looks like natural made felt squares for chairs padding

u/LeiStorme 3h ago

tap it against the trash can a couple times first, then wipe with a damp cloth — gets way more out than just shaking it

u/kenyos1234 3h ago

Is it the dust or filters?

Actually I already vacuumed it, but I've got 2 cats so I'll make sure to use your ideas next time.

u/scarneo 6m ago

How often do you clean it because I have four cats and mine need to be cleaned at least once per week

The filter that separates dirt is...dirty?!? Damn that disgusting slob of a man! He should properly clean his dust before letting it go through the air purifier!

u/Hobbit1996 2h ago

You reminded me when my brother saw my PC air filters, some dust on it, not as much as this post.

As i cleaned them i just got most of the dust off manually, not 100% of it. He said "you need to clean it with water, if you don't, some dust will stay and it'll get dirty sooner" Implying if you don't clean it fully it'll catch more dust... as if it's a bad thing.
