Not only do I sweep out the shelter, but after my thru my wife and I section hiked all of GA to get the patch and we carried and placed a broom in a shelter on each one of our trips.

I stayed an the Kirkridge shelter, was the second one there, no sweeping. Layed out my bed, had a great nights sleep. When I was packing up, there was a thick coating of dust/dirt on the bottom of my bed roll. Is there a better way to get this off than sweeping the shelter before sleeping? I mean, either I sweep it off the floor or sweep it off my gear....the same chance of inhaling rodent fece-fied dust, no?
burn/dismantle all shelters. end of problem.
Unless you think that that's what brooms are for. It's not a waste of time if you put them there's a prop available during the shelter's recreation of the scene in the Wizard of Oz where the Wicked Witch threatens the scarecrow.
Three words: gas powered leafblower.
