I Have A Dirt And Gravel Driveway Lots Of Dust, Dirt Etc., Etc On My Windows.

What should I be planting to stop and collect it before it hits my glass windows etc? I compost every year and I know I have a lot of fine “earth” flying around too. I have tried to plant rooms and structure, but I need suggestions..
I own both houses the one on the right (salmon) has the long driveway and parking area.
