How can my orbs be dust when my house is clean?
I cleaned my lens just before taking the picture?
Dust is everywhere, it doesn't help how much you clean (in fact that may contribute as it creates airborne dust). Most airborne dust will not be visible - but it's there!
Dust on a lens will rarely cause orbs - the majority of orbs are created by airborne dust in the area between the lens and the point of focus - far enough away to be illuminated by the flash, but not far enough so it would be in focus.
