Caring for your Wood Floors
Wood flooring is among the easiest to care for of any
floors. The surface is smooth and does not attract dirt like
some tile or most vinyl flooring. It also does not show
spots like some laminates.
Wood flooring can be swept, dust mopped or vacuumed. Most
manufacturers suggest dust mopping or vacuuming your floors
for a quick clean up. Be sure your vacuum is put on the hard
flooring position to avoid scratching with the vacuum brush.
To clean your wood floors, you need very little liquid. You
can use a white vinegar and water solution: 2 parts vinegar
to 8 parts water. This is a great eco friendly solution and
inexpensive too. Mix the solution and put it in a spray
bottle and just spray the floor and mop it up. (Be sure you
have vacuumed up all the sand from your floor before
mopping). You can also just put the solution into a pail,
and use a rag, but be sure to wring the rag free of most of
the solution as you don’t want it dripping wet.
