Sun Room Problems

I have a screened in sun room and my furniture in there keeps getting this white powdery substance on it. I don't know what it is?

Look toward where the prevailing wind comes from, Do you see trees or flowers or even weeds that are blooming? Could be pollon from any plants that are nearby. Those big weeds with yellow flowers (Ragweed maybe...I dunno!) are all around me and my car has a yellow haze on it from them!

The furniture is white wicker with plain average cotton pillowed cushions. I do have a lot of trees in the area, but I know it's not pollen because it comes year round. And it's a whiteish/grey.

Do they put limestone rock on a gravel road nearby?

Still no suggestions? Maybe it's coming from the ceiling? Because I have two different screened in porches and they both have it.

There are probably no more suggestions because everyone probably assumes it is just dust.

Unless you can post some pictures and they trigger something in someone's mind, I don't know that we're going to be able to answer this one for you.

Okay, well I will try to take some pictures tomorrow because I don't think it's dust.
