If it is not cleaned immediately, dust and dirt will stick and be difficult to clean even if it is mopped using water or cleaning fluid.

Brilio.net - A house that is regularly swept and mopped will feel cleaner and more comfortable. In contrast to a house that is rarely swept and mopped, generally the floors will be dirty and even oily. Especially if the floor used is made of granite. The reason is, granite has a slightly porous surface so dust and dirt easily stick to it.

If it is not cleaned immediately, dust and dirt will stick and be difficult to clean even if it is mopped using water or floor cleaning fluid. That's why, quite a few people choose to mix floor cleaning fluid with several ingredients, such as vinegar.

Vinegar is known to be effective in helping remove stubborn stains on the surface of objects . However, unlike a netizen on the Instagram account @viee_arafta, he admitted that he added two kitchen ingredients to mop so that the results were cleaner and rougher.

Once all the ingredients are ready, immediately dip the mop into the container. Then drain the mop, then rub it all over the floor of the house until it is even. Wait until it's dry so it's not slippery, then you can step on the floor again.

Apart from being effective for removing dust and dirt on granite floors, this method can also be used to mop ordinary ceramic floors. The method is the same.

"This method can also be used for ordinary floors, which have been splashed with oil so that the oil comes off and the floor becomes a mat," he concluded.
