Which household mop is better?

What kind of household mop is the best at present depends on the actual situation of your home. After all, every mop has its own characteristics, and the best mop is the one that suits your family. Generally speaking, you can walk directly after mopping the floor with collodion, which is suitable for floor tiles and not for cement floors. The collodion mopped the floor very clean. When washing, as long as the water washes away the dirt on the surface, it can be squeezed repeatedly. The collodion head needs to be changed every few months, only a few dollars. If you don't use it often, the collodion head will be dry and hard, and it will take several minutes to soak. If you use it every day, you will be fine.

Matters needing attention in the use of household mops:

2. The direction of mopping the floor should follow the lines of the floor as far as possible, so that the dirt can be easily removed and the cleaning effect can be achieved.

It's better to clean the mop with running water, which will be cleaner. If you have the habit of using floor cleaner, you can put the dirty mop under the faucet and wash it away, then soak it in a bucket full of cleaner and wring it out to mop the floor.
