#housework #question Do you use a mop or get on your hands & knees? I've realised mop is crap & hurts my back so have scrubbed with sponge.

I bought a steam mop and it is actually amazing! Cleans and sterilises, no scrubbing required.

next time, please ask questions about poo or something. My 'brand' is suffering enough. And it's a mop for me. :/

Oooh, like a power tool nearly!

Sorry about that... How do I get the dog poo of the back door ledge & how the bloody hell did she manage it?!

Daily - floor wipe; weekly - mop and boiling water; monthly - quick hand and knees scrub. It looks like a lot but isn't. X

d'oh! No idea. Use tissue to scrape it off, like I had to earlier with the 4yo? #backinthezone

You do far more than me, but my floor is usually shamefully filthy.

nice. Dogs and kids...

my kitchen and dining room are stone tiles so mop and use sponge on tough areas, would take hours if I sponged whole thing :)

I feel so proud. I still remember my now teen son backing out of loo bare bummed saying "is it clean?"

He was about 2 at the time & meeting my boyriendf for the first time.

So was mine and I was spending too long on it every week because the dirt was ground in. This way I spend much less time!

C73565ec116552b6c381aba717fd3f23_normal @MotherScuffer Yorkshire

Ours is huge, but light coloured laminate, crap and impractical!

2:22PM Mon, April 09 2012

C73565ec116552b6c381aba717fd3f23_normal @MotherScuffer Yorkshire

I think mine will be easier in new place, is not such a huge area and not light coloured.

mop! Too lazy to do the whole scrubby thing.

2:33PM Mon, April 09 2012

C73565ec116552b6c381aba717fd3f23_normal @MotherScuffer Yorkshire

It seems mops work if you don't have 3 kids & a dog & use it more than once a month (or two...)

Tell me about it. We have cream stair carpet and it is DIS- CUST-ING. People with children need dark coloured flooring! X

2:38PM Mon, April 09 2012

C73565ec116552b6c381aba717fd3f23_normal @MotherScuffer Yorkshire

they really do. I think there is cream carpet on stairs of new house.

our carpets are all cream - rental houses always are. Stupid.

2:43PM Mon, April 09 2012

C73565ec116552b6c381aba717fd3f23_normal @MotherScuffer Yorkshire

They really are. The house I'm renting next is even owned by people with children!

2:43PM Mon, April 09 2012

8fdbabc04543b4e9a0d24d8f3a8d846c_normal @mommatwotweets dorset

they all think it makes it look bright and spacious. I think it looks like I'm losing another deposit!

2:44PM Mon, April 09 2012

Ebgqj2t4jor5mqfxfhhd_normal @chaznmax

Haha! I just close the stair gate and hope no-one notices! We've tried everything. Hopefully replacing soon!

2:47PM Mon, April 09 2012

Ebgqj2t4jor5mqfxfhhd_normal @chaznmax

Thank god for laminate flooring. And baby wipes. Without either of those my house would be a hovel!

we have new light carpets - but chose a speckled oatmeal/Gray in hope... Foolish hope! Not to bad yet though

When I win the lottery and move to a huge mansion the children's wing will be painted muddy brown. Top to bottom.

I am addicted to bleach wet wipes - they fix all problems!

2:54PM Mon, April 09 2012

Ebgqj2t4jor5mqfxfhhd_normal @chaznmax

I use the disinfectant ones on the kitchen floor. Best thing I've ever bought!

2:56PM Mon, April 09 2012

C73565ec116552b6c381aba717fd3f23_normal @MotherScuffer Yorkshire

wipes are good, I use them for cleaning the loo
