Do housework, check for prints (4)
I believe the answer is:
dust
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'do housework' is the first definition.

'check for prints' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
(Other definitions for dust that I've seen before include "Our mortal body" , "Clean - dirt" , "Fine powdery material that can be blown about in the air" , "Do household cleaning" , "Fine dirt particles" .)
