DIYbanter - View Single Post - removing cobwebs from exterior walls of house?

wrote:

I just moved into a house where the exterior was poorly maintained.
There are cobwebs all over with other debris caught in the webs. Using
a vacuum is quite tedious and a hose with water is not doing that great
of a job.
Any of suggestions?

1. Hit the fabric store and buy a yard of their nylon net (mosquito
net). Your choice of color.

2. Cut a section of it and scrunch it into a tuft.

3. Tape it onto the end of a pole.

4. Walk around the house and wipe the cobwebs with the nylon net tuft.
It snags up and collects cobwebs like nobody's business. Rinse it off
with the hose when it gets full of cobwebs and dirt.

A smaller version of this (with the net tuft taped to a dowel) works
great indoors.
