i find that even nastier than doing the blinds. anyone have any tricks for getting in the grooves and cleaning out the dirt/dust? they seem to be rather bad right now. eeek. spring cleaning. so rewarding . . . once you're done!

I have used an old toothbrush before..I dip it in windex and scrub away.

Or if you don't want to use Windex use vinegar. It isn't nearly as toxic.

Dip the toothbrush in vinegar and a bit of baking soda too if you need to.

actually tried the windex and toothbrush last weekend. worked well. could try the other less toxic recipe but i think i'm stickin' with the coarse toothbrush regardless. worked like a charm! still think this is one of my least favorite jobs around our home.
