Do you use splatter screens over the frying pans and pots while you cook? A big, flat circle with a handle and a screen across it, sits on the frying pan, the grease mostly clings to it. Then it gets cleaned with a grease cutter. They are in the kitchen sections of stores, even the grocery store used to
sell them. If you wanted to make your own, you could make a frame with wire, include a handle, and cover it with 100% cotton fabric. It collects so much grease you wouldn't want to put it in the washing machine but maybe hand-wash it in a
bucket with
soap.
You can use a floor sponge mop to reach the ceiling sprayed with a grease cutter like 409 or whatever kind of environmentally friendly grease cutter is available. Of
course, floating grease isn't just on the ceiling. It's on the walls, it may have floated into rooms with fabric on chairs and couches, and lamp shades. If you are noticing a greasy surface on a side table in another room, then it's on everything in that room.
It's probably not a good idea to be breathing floating grease, and maybe cooking at a lower temperature to keep that from happening. Haven't there been articles lately about how oil taken to temps over 400F or 450F turn into something that isn't good for us?
If you are an avid fryer of foods there are very good air fryers on the market that everyone raves about. Check out YouTube for people doing different recipes in an air fryer.
