That is too funny, Lorriane! I wish we HAD an air compressor! The house we moved into a few months ago had sat empty for a LONG time and the popcorn ceiling was GROSS. So I ended up just sweeping it with a clean broom. It got the dust off and a had the side effect of knocking a lot of the popcorn off :D I was happy until I had to clean it up! LOL
That is a great idea. My DH just said but our ceiling is clean and we haven't touched it in 8 years. I guess I don't ever have to clean the ceiling. Occasionally I get a cobweb but I just knock them down with a broom. We don't smoke so were lucky there and our friends go outside if they need to smoke. But I love your idea.
Good idea. Suppose a leaf blower would work? I tried blowing the dust out of the furnace (wall type) and it blew dust ALL over the house. #1 son with asthma had to spend the night with his grandma because he couldn't breath.
