Dust accumulation in homes is a continuous process involving particles such as clothing fibers, skin cells, and pollen, which are circulated by indoor activities and HVAC systems. 

To manage this, various technologies and methods are utilized. Robotic vacuum technology, which employs sensors and mapping for automated floor maintenance, has seen significant development. Recent product testing by IMTEST identified the DJI Romo P2 as a top performer among 28 vacuum-mop robots, specifically noting its superior navigation, obstacle recognition, and carpet cleaning capabilities. The TP Link Tapo RV30 Max Plus was identified as a high-value option due to its low price, despite having more limited features.

To ensure the longevity and efficiency of these robotic devices, users are advised to adopt specific maintenance habits. This includes clearing small obstacles like cables, toys, or socks to prevent the device from getting stuck, and isolating wet areas to protect motors and HEPA filters from moisture. Pet owners are specifically cautioned to clear organic waste and regularly remove hair from brushes and wheels to prevent motor overload.

Manual cleaning methods also remain relevant. Specialized tools, such as the 115-centimeter Meisterstark radiator brush with a beechwood handle, are used to reach narrow spaces to reduce allergens. Additionally, household remedies such as mixing glycerin with water have been suggested to create a protective layer on surfaces to slow dust settling.
