I bet that dogs lick many things (aside from their own body parts Chat Icon). I am sure that some of the other stuff they come in contact with can harm them more than soap. Chat Icon

Re: best mop

thanks for the proof. I will have to show it to her so we can get the swiffer back in the house.

and my dog would lick a tree if I let him. I dont think the swiffer will damage him.

Re: best mop

thanks girls, but I do already use the swiffer and also use the swiffer wet.

Honestly they don't do the full deep clean that is needed on floors. they are good for in between jobs..

I guess I meant an ol' fashioned mop with bucket - LOL

I'm with you - though I haven't tried the Swiffer Wet Jet.

I like the one's that are like big sponges and have either a scrubber or brush on one end for stubborn spots...and I can squeeze the mop with one quick motion (does that make sense Chat Icon ). Don't remember what brand it was...but I am in need of a new mop sponge. I really dislike those traditional mophead's - with the white strings?? - wringing it skeeves me.

That's funny...because I think that gives a MUCH better cleaning than mops - sponge or stringy things.Chat Icon
I find those just put more dirt on the floor...from the dirty water.Chat Icon

Granted...I have to use several pads to make sure it's clean, but I'm a little skitzo!Chat Icon

Re: best mop

I'm convinced there is no best mop. A fortune could be made on a good mop! I use the swiffer wet thing but a scrub brush on my hands and knees for a thorough cleaning. I wish there was a better alternative.

I bought what I use now at either Walmart or Target. can't remmeber. it's got a green handle and the mop part of it is orange. I think it works well because it's frayed, not 1 solid piece, so it gets under the fridge, stove, etc
