Add this to the water. Even when you don’t clean the floor in a week, it will remain clean without any dust
A cleaning lady with over 30 years of experience recently shared a trick to keep floors “very clean, not easy to collect dust,” and avoid bad smells, especially in summer. Here’s how to do it:
- Sweep First: Always sweep before mopping. “If the house is dirty, it is very difficult to clean it.”
- Mix the Solution: Fill a bucket with water and add the following:
- Salt: “Salt can quickly dry the floor” and works as a disinfectant.
- Dishwashing liquid: Removes grease stains, leaving floors cleaner.
- White vinegar or lemon juice: Softens stains for easier cleaning.
- Disinfect: Add a little alcohol and baking soda. These help to sterilize the floor and remove stains.
- Prevent Dust: The key ingredient is fabric softener, which “prevents static electricity, avoiding dust and stains from sticking to the floor.”
- Mop as Usual: Stir the mixture, soak your mop, and clean the floor normally.
By using this method, your floor will stay cleaner for longer, without attracting dust or developing bad odors.
