The traditional custom of sweeping dust has a long history. The folk song says, "Twenty-four, Dust Clearing Day." 23/24 ended, and officially began to prepare for the New Year.

It is a traditional habit of China people to clean the dust before New Year's Day. Whenever the Spring Festival comes, every household should clean the environment, and use bamboo leaves and grapefruit leaves tied to poles to clean the dust cobwebs on the ceiling and walls of the roof, which is called sweeping away "bad luck" and "bad luck" to clear up the auspicious day of the coming year.

In addition to cleaning the house, we should also clean all kinds of electrical appliances, dismantle and wash bedding curtains, clean the willow green courtyard, and dredge the open channel culverts. North and south of the great river, the atmosphere of welcoming the new year is clean. Folklore experts say that sweeping dust not only means driving away the epidemic and praying for a healthy new year, but also means removing the "old" (dust) and promoting the new. This custom conveys a signal of the busy atmosphere of the New Year to people.
