I’ve found that Swiffer Wet Jet and Swiffer Wet Mopping Pads are good for light, in-between cleanings. Both will take care of spills and dirty footprints, but they’re no substitute for a thorough job.
I begin with a steam mop, which cleans deeply and sanitizes but leaves steaks. Then, I use a sponge mop and Better Life (also called Simply Floored) natural floor cleaner. This “green” product removes any leftover dirt and grime, doesn’t have a residue (no rinsing), and leaves a nice sheen. Bonus – it contains citrus and mint oils that work like aromatherapy.
Mops can be difficult – nasty, actually – to rinse, wring, and dry in an apartment; I’ve been there! Sponge mops are much more compact and manageable; they dry very quickly.
A tip I’ve learned from some hardwood floor specialists – don’t use Murphy’s Wood Oil Soap on finished wood floors. The residue will build to a slimy mess. I’ve also heard the same advice about Bona products.
