Desk Fans are very useful especially during the summer. But like any other home appliance, it should be cleaner regularly to ensure that the dirt and dust that it harbors do not affect the health of th people who uses it.

But how does one properly clean a desk fan?

Apartment Therapy shared in its website a step-by-step guide in cleaning a desk fan. Electrician

“In anticipation of spending the warmer months with our oscillating fans on to keep us cool, now is a good time to pause and take a few minutes to give them a quick clean. They’ve got a lot of work ahead of them and could use a little bit of attention. (Plus it will keep your fan—and your lungs—in better shape!). Small toiletry items like cotton swabs, makeup brushes, foam craft brushes, or toothpicks are great for jobs like this. They are just small enough to get caked-on dirt out of tiny crevices that are hard to tackle with a basic rag.”

Even Animals like Fans

Humans though are not the only living being in the planet that enjoys desk or table top fans. The Marsupial featured over at British website Daily Mail, glides alongside an oscillating fan.

“How do pet sugar gliders learn to glide when they are not in the wild? They take lessons, of course. Adorable footage shows a small pet marsupial learning to glide from the safety of its home, with the help from a trusty desk fan. Ready for take to the skies, the sugar glider stretches out its little arms and fluffy tail waiting for the fan to oscillate round to its body for take-off.”
