Our parents or grand parents says that don't sweep after sunset,If we sweep means the goddess Lakshmi will walk out.

 But what the science is saying we all know that there is no electricity in that era(Great grand parents era)So there's no light in homes,If we throw any  important items like gold,silver and some other receipts on floor then we are unable to find them in night time so these things will also be thrown along with the dust.This is what the actual reason for Don't sweep after sunset.
