First of all, prepare the mop that will be used. If so, put enough floor cleaning fluid, disinfectant, bar soap, detergent, and dish soap into the mop container. If so, add boiling water to the container.
You can also stir the cleaning fluid with the help of a tool so that it does not directly touch your hands. Next, dip the mop into the cleaning mixture, then wring out the mop. Once done, immediately use the mop to clean the entire floor surface in the house.
