People in Australia often announce to friends and family that they have cleaned their home from top to bottom but in reality, this is very seldom the case. We do our best but in order to be able to do the job right, we need the right kind of cleaning tools and many homes here in Australia just don’t have them. One of the most difficult things to keep clean in your home are your floors because everything that is outside is carried inside on the soles of people’s shoes and some of the stuff that is brought in would really turn your stomach.
When it comes to keeping your floors clean, you need an affordable, effective floor mop and believe me when I tell you that all mops are not the same. You get what you pay for as people often say and so take your time, get yourself online to read reviews and make sure that you choose the right kind of mop for the floors in your home. This is just one top tip that will help you to keep your floors clean here in Thailand and the following are some others.
- Get the vacuum cleaner out – It is true that mopping the floor will give them that shine that they had when you got them put down in the first place but you need to take care of your floors on a very daily basis. The floor must be cleaned before you can mop it effectively and so wheeling out the vacuum cleaner from time to time is the only surefire way to get rid of any dirt and dust that has accumulated on your floors. Not only does it make the job of mopping easier but it is just what the doctor ordered for your allergies.
- Learn how to mop correctly – Many people think that mopping the floor is a very straightforward and easy thing to do but many are not doing it right. The key is to not use too much soap or detergent in the water and don’t get the mop too wet. Remember to change the water regularly and don’t try to mop a large floor with only one fill of water.
- Replace the tiles if needed – The tiles on your kitchen floor may have seen better days and because tiles are incredibly affordable and they come in many different colours and designs, it is quite easy to pull up the old ones and put some new ones down. This is actually a job that you might be able to do yourself and if you just follow the guy on YouTube then there’s no reason why you can’t complete this job in a very short space of time.
It’s a full-time job keeping your home clean and particularly your floors. It might be an idea to adopt some of the Asian culture because they leave their shoes at the door and so dirt and grime doesn’t get an opportunity to come in.
