I was really hoping you were just going to say clip it, turn it on, wait 3 minutes and, like magic, the dust is attached to the sock. I'll keep hoping. 🤣
This technique works great for painting a room also. Tape cups of paint on top of the blades, but only tape the outside portion on the cup so it can flip over when it gets spinning fast enough.
Jennifer……. To much information…. Now I have PTSD…. LOL Jk. That might actually be a clue to husband what you may be wearing later as a teaser… One way to keep a marriage spiced up.
I'm a professional house cleaner of over 20 years and this is just a lazy way out. Cute idea but lazy. You need to get up on a ladder and clean more than the fan blades trust me.
Yep, the top of the motor gets very dirty. The parts where the blades attach, the light. I guess if you have clothespins lying around, ok. I haven't used clothespins in years and have had no need for them. I use an ecloth or swiffer extendable duster for regular cleaning and a tall step stool for deeper cleaning. Takes 5min to deep clean the fan. Add another 5 if I remove the light globe to wash
Brenda, I agree! Seems like she is “trying” to be creative. A DUST CLOTH is the quickest way. Who has time to shop for big tube socks at a thrift store? Really?
I was hoping she’d turn the fan on w/socks attached. Like the game you play when you have a high vaulted ceiling and you throw stuff into the blades to watch the stuff scatter everywhere. Small, individually wrapped hard candies work the best! In the end you have clean blades!
Here is an EASY BREEZY one: Have you ever just covered each blade with an old be pillowcase? As you pull the pillowcase off, all the dust comes with it and stays neatly inside the pillow case ready to go in the wash just turn the pillowcases inside out.
I do that all the time, when she said you can't get both sides with a pillowcase, apparently she's not putting the fan blade inside the pillow case. ;)
The 6' swiffer is a god sent, you don't need a ladder, you will do it more often because it's so easy, so no need to accumulate dust. And you can do all around your crown moldings. It's in my cleaning routine every week. I love it.
Can you please tell me more about your Swiffer Swiffer jet all that please... For our floors...we foster and rescue special needs dogs... And to amid we are foster failure lolol.. not a bad thing lol...great dogs... But been thinking about getting a few for our home for sweeping up some dog hair and mopping I would so so very much appreciated anyone's help on this matter... Thank you so very much again Suzette Thibault
What kind of ceiling fan is so low that you DON’T need a ladder? No one in my house is over 6 ft. I would rather use the swifter with extender stick. Do not like this idea!
Yes it is 🙂 I am a professional house cleaner and I use Swiffer dusters all over the floors and then I mop them by hand get on my hands and knees that's the best way to clean 🙂 so if anybody sees his comments I'm a professional house cleaner and I love it it's my passion
@@Justin_Case01 Bust all you want! So I got interested and checked, the ceiling is 8 feet, this place was built 30 years ago, I think the current standard in Australia is now 9 feet or whatever that is in metric.
I spray the inside of an old pillowcase and put that over the fan blades, fold wrap it over and draw back - it keeps all the dirt and dust inside and then that goes into the washing machine. Then I dab drops of lavender or rose geranium essential oil on the blades and when it turns on, the aroma of these fills the room
Use black socks instead no stains. I have definitely used old stock as cleaning rags. Just tried the big fan brush today and all the dust went onto the floor. The very best thing is cleaning wipes or baby wipes they are already wet they keep the dust on the wipes and you can throw them away.
I imagine some washcloths and clothespins would work just as well and Walmart has a 6 pack for $1.75 right now and always have large packs of cheap ones for around $3 year round. Though using those lone socks that lost their mates long ago is a great recycling use for them. Ive used old socks to dust with for years.
True, that would be ideal, HOWEVER, there are MANY of us who physically CAN'T get up on a ladder while lugging their vacuums to do it properly for whatever reasons. I know I can't anymore. 🤔 Which is most likely why our fan blades need dusting so badly to begin with. Just saying.
They actually have blade cleaners for really cheap that encapsulates each side of the blade (reusable) and that you can extend without having to use a stool or chair to stand on…but this is a good tip for those who need it immediately.
How did you figure this out, phenomenal discovery, truly a revolutionary creation, this will change humanity for decades to come, thank you heaven sent goddess.
I guess that's cool idea if your fan is above your bed! I really wouldn't wast time with clothes pin and sick I just take the long duster bunny they have spray some dust spray and swipe it off! Cool idea tho for fans above table or bed!
So much easier and quicker to use a damp cloth with the cleaning solution sprayed on it. Fold fold the cloth over the side of the blade. You’ll clean the top and the bottom at the same time and it will be so much faster instead of wasting time clipping socks on the blades.
I am retired but I used to paint houses, mostly out side but also indoors. I took the fake wood blades off of several ceiling fans, cleaned them, sprayed with sandable primer, and pastel finish coat. They went from ugly to fresh and fun.
Just use a damp hand towel. If dust isn’t hanging off the blades then it’s not really gonna go anywhere. Not a big deal if you do have to wipe a little dust off the floor. This is why I don’t have ceiling fans. I’m short, and they’re too much of a hassle. I want furniture with clean lines and less knickknacks. I don’t want anything extra.
Hehe. Fun idea.... but myself, being a big kid, I'd be tempted to pin a sock to each individual blade, then turn the blade on high setting!! 😁👍 still I like the sock idea better than the pillow case method.
To each their own. I use an extended swifter wand with the 360 duster, wipe top, edges than botton. Also, the pillow case jack works for a quick wipe as well.
Oh my gosh when I started watching I was like who has that clean of a fan blade to put their socks up there to dry. Oh oh my bad. Oh. That's awesome! 🖖🤣💋👌💫 Seriously the more you know. 💫😂
I haven’t tried the pillowcase yet but that seems like a very good method. I find that vacuuming the fan blades and then wiping down works well if they’re super dirty to start with
A lot of people don't like this idea judging from the comments. Let me tell you why I think I will still try this idea. First off, I HATE cleaning ceiling fans. I am not tall so I always need to find something to stand on, I go through an outrageous amount of paper towels and hate washing cleaning rags so I try to minimize where I use them. This idea would help me because I struggled to reach the tops of the blades on mine this morning when I cleaned this. A sock I could pull tight enough and it will likely clean both sides. The only downside is buying socks. They aren't cheap and I don't often find any at yard sales so maybe this gives people a use for all the socks they have acquired that no longer have mates. I was covered in dust when I was done and spent 30 min vacuuming. If you could find a way to also use a sock to catch the dust at the end of the blade before it falls everywhere, you'd probably be considered my hero. I cursed SO MUCH when I cleaned my ceiling fans this morning. Google must have heard me stressing and gave me this video to watch haha. So now we have socks for the fan blades and I use rubber shoes to clean upholstery. Haha how did footwear end up such an essential part of cleaning? 😆
Wait a minute you hate using wash rags and paper towels but you had no problem climbing on a step stoll using socks? That makes absolutely no sense. And what do you mean you hate washing out a wash rag don't you wash them when you use them and for anything else? Rinsing them off in the sink is not that big of a chore. And by the way your local Dollar Tree sells a Swiffer knockoff that actually will go on a pole
Socks and ceiling fans--reminds me of my childhood: When my little brother and I were home alone and got really bored, we'd toss socks into the ceiling fan and watch them shoot across the room.
I put blue jeans on my fan blades. Only takes two pairs and your jeans are washed while they clean your fan blades. Don't forget to slather them in liquid detergent before you turn the fan on. Spray with garden hose while on high reverse rotation. Leave windows open to avoid molding. Leave jeans on fan over night on high to dry.
I dust my fan blades with a pillow case so it contains all of the dust, then I throw it in the washer. Easiest way I’ve ever found to do it. I have a specific cotton pillowcase in my cleaning supplies just for this task. Anything else throws the dust all over everything below the fan.
She forgot the last step: You put your right foot in And you shake it all about You do the Hokey Pokey and you turn yourself around That's what it's all about!
Military guys have used fans for years it a great way to dry your socks after washing them . Slip the sock on the fan clip with a peg and turn on the fan .
I thought this was going to be a hilarious parody of useless "hacks" to the point I lol'd as I clicked the thumbnail. I was very wrong. Congrats on a mill views tho!
You need to here this, my grandkiddos began throwing socks up, then! They had the nerve to tell me I needed to clean them! I told them they discovered the dust so they can now rescue the “ dust bunnies”!!😁
I just pull the socks up over the entire blade and run my fans like that. "You have socks on your fan blades?" said a friend. "Yeah, I know, genius, right?" I said. "Sometimes I double sock when it's cold."
I just use a microfiber cloth sprayed, fold in half so top and bottom and use hand to pull it and then scrunch up for the extra bits to get after. I am not fidgeting with socks, pillow cases, clothes pins...I want it done as quickly as possible.
For kitchen fans the blades tend to get greasy. What I’ve done is use oven cleaner on a rag and (with the help of a step ladder) wipe them off. Comes off so much easier than using regular cleaning products.
@@grammyj17988 Unfortunately yes, if the grease is really bad that’s the only thing I can find that will take it off. I own a cleaning business, and we have tried just about everything. You spray it on the wet rag though not on the fan itself.
Easiest method to spray on LA's Totally Awesome 😀concentrate lasts long time $3 large bottle, $1 smaller spray bottle. Cannot beat how this works! Cleaned someone's ceiling fan that smoked heavy and hadn't dusted his fans for 4 years! LA's Totally Awesome melted away thick dust combined with nicotine, cleaned like a breeze. Best product on market to clean up dirty ceiling fans! No need to thank me, glad that I can offer clean advice.
Anytime you clean your ceiling fan (not this way!) ALWAYS CHECK /TIGHTEN ALL SCREWS ON THE BLADES AND BRACKET TO MOTOR SCREWS. THE SCREWS TEND TO LOOSEN UP FROM VIBRATION WHICH CAUSES BALANCE ISSUES. + FOR SAFETY
Instead of doing that. Grab paper towels or a rag. Wipe it down proper and wax it up with an oil line pine or lemon. To make it shine and smell good while turning it on
I love your ideas l'd do something a little different, love the ideas! I'd have wet the sock with great cleaner and pulled it Blade over the sock with the inside of the sock as it's got terry towel and it would clean it better.
I'd just use a swiffer duster pad and get everything off on one sheet without ruining a sock or a load of laundry. Plus then you can just throw it away and it costs very little per pad.
I just use a damp rag and wipe each blade. Takes like 4-5 mins.
Right but then she wouldn't get as many clicks. Clicks = revenue
But you can reach it. I'm 5'1" and I have a terrible time trying to clean them!
Me too
@@LilyS1031 how dose the sock fix that? I thought this video was trolling but they are dead ass about this shit, hilarious.
@@mikebravo3527 well, the sock would work just fine, if I could grow about 24". Actually, I like being 5' so I'll just let the fans stay dusty.

..... or a swiffer! No brainer!
I was thinking the same thing… What weirdo uses socks to clean a ceiling fan… A washcloth/rag can do the same thing…🤦🏾♂️
I just use a damp paper towel. That way I can just toss and don’t need to worry about putting extra dust in the washing machine
The dry towel would just allow the dust to fly everywhere. At least the damp cloth captures the dust! I have also been successful with that method!
That’s also what I do!
Same

Fill one of the socks with marbles or rocks that would be a really good idea
I just wipe the blades with a rag,no need for reinventing the wheel here... 😆
I use a damp hand towel and slide it down both sides, including the top and bottom. Gets the dust caterpillars off the blades easily.

The brush is the way to go. You can even spray your favorite cleaner on it. Done and done.
I thought you were turning on fan so the treated sock would capture additional dust in the air floating around.
How did you figure this out, phenomenal discovery, truly a revolutionary creation, this will change humanity for decades to come, thank you heaven sent goddess.

I would like to know how you use toilet paper. This Visio was so informing and appreciated.
Instead of doing that. Grab paper towels or a rag. Wipe it down proper and wax it up with an oil line pine or lemon. To make it shine and smell good while turning it on
I usually get my air compressor and five seconds rule !!😂🍺
I love your ideas l'd do something a little different, love the ideas! I'd have wet the sock with great cleaner and pulled it Blade over the sock with the inside of the sock as it's got terry towel and it would clean it better.
I'd just use a swiffer duster pad and get everything off on one sheet without ruining a sock or a load of laundry. Plus then you can just throw it away and it costs very little per pad.
