Crumbs And Fluff

My new keyboard- installed less than a week ago- is already full of crumbs, even though I swear I eat my breakfast croissant off a plate. Not just crumbs but fluff. I guess keyboards carry a charge of static electricity which plucks the detritus out of the air and draws it in.  I was cleaning the old keyboard last night- prior to putting it in storage- and it was unbelievably filthy.

I turn my keyboards upside regularly and give them a little shake to dislodge all the crud that gets inside.

I poke around between the keys with my pocket knife.
