Cleaning Wood Floors

How do you clean your wood floors? Do you use a special mop?

First Vacuum
Next swiffer
Third microfiber mop w/ a solution of vinegar and water spritz onto the mop, not emersed in it.

Just make sure you dry your floors immediately. Standing water, even a small amount, is really bad for wood floors.

That's what our floor guy told us to do, too.

1 part vinegar to 2 or 3 parts water.

Vinegar also disinfects, it's cheap and it's natural... no chemicals.

Re: Cleaning Wood Floors

I use a combination of white vinegar & water and drain the rag as best as I can before mopping.
