Beware of dark flooring

The place we are renting now has dark parquet flooring throughout the kitchen and main living area.  It looked really nice when we first moved in a year ago - it had just been oiled and was striking and lusterous.  I quickly noticed, however, that on a dark floor, every single crumb and fluff of dust show up like a flashing neon sign contrasting against a moonless sky.  Poetry aside, it is really annoying.  I am not interested in sweeping or vacuuming the whole place every day, but I kind of have to.  So, to all of you who think dark flooring looks nice:  it is a pain in the ass and only looks nice the first couple hours after you wash it.
