A cleaning professional shared a simple method to keep floors spotless and dust-free, especially in summer.
Step 1: Sweep First
Always sweep thoroughly before mopping. Dirt and debris left behind make it harder to get a smooth, clean finish.
Step 2: Mix the Solution
In a bucket of water, add:
Salt (for faster drying and disinfecting)
Dish soap (to cut grease and spills)
Vinegar or lemon juice (to soften stains and boost cleaning power)
Alcohol (to disinfect and prevent mold)
Baking soda (to scrub and sterilize)
Fabric softener (to reduce static so dust won’t cling)
Stir until everything dissolves.
Step 3: Mop as Usual
Dip the mop in the mixture and clean the floor. This blend disinfects, removes stains, eliminates odors, and prevents static, so dirt and dust don’t settle as quickly.
Why It Works
The solution addresses multiple issues at once—grease, bacteria, odors, stains, and static buildup. Floors stay fresh and clean longer, even in hot weather.
Final Tip
Sweep first, mix well, and mop evenly. With this method, floors remain bright, odor-free, and dust-resistant with little extra effort.
