Any kind of wood floor is best cleaned by string mops.  It doesn’t matter if it is mahogany hardwood floor or laminated floor.  String mops can clean larger areas than any other mop.  They can also reach the narrow places that modern steam, sponge, or spray mops can’t.  They are the best help for the toughest job that requires scrubbing or cleaning up big spills.  Housekeeping experts say that old fashioned string mops have more surface area for soaking up liquids; they are more absorbent.  Steam, spray , or flat headed sponge mops are mostly efficient when you just have to clean up small areas, or when accidental small spills occur.  One of the main differences between string mops and other mops is how they wring out the dirt.  This difference make people think twice before buying a mop.  Well, guess what?  String mops are earth friendly cleaning tools because you don’t have to be changing disposable pads frequently.  And sure, string mops are usually heavy when it comes to wringing out the dirty water, but newer string mop models use lightweight materials and have convenient features such as wringer sleeves to make it easier to wring out dirty water. In conclusion, string mops, clean better, are earth friendly, and easy on your pocket so that you don’t have to have a hard time finding the right tools to enjoy your hardwood floor.
