slut's wool

another name for 'dust bunnies', large conglomerations of dust and other debris that collects in the corner of rooms, normally around skirting boards.

Before 'slut' became common-usage for a woman of promiscuous temperament it was also used to describe a slovenly girl or woman who was untidy or did not clean her house.

'Have you got a hoover, because I don't think I can get rid of all this slut's wool with just a broom'

'I swear, this flat is so dusty, give it five days and already there's slut's wool under the beds'
