dust mops

Dry cleaning tools

A dust mop is a flat mop with a wide head covered in soft fibers or microfiber, used dry to pick up dust and debris from hard floors.

Unlike wet mops, dust mops work by attracting particles through static or trapping them in the fibers: She ran the dust mop across the hardwood before guests arrived.
