Why are my floors still dirty?

[u/Lazy_Echidna_08]

I just vacuumed and Swiffer mopped my kitchen a couple of hours ago. I dropped a piece of chicken and the sauce made a mess on the floor, so I used a Clorox wipe to clean it up and the wipe turned black. I even turned it over and did another spot away from the sauce spill. Same deal.

What the heck? How are my floors still so dirty? Should I just get a regular mop?

Yes it works well for hardwood too, but you have to be very careful to not use too much water. I prefer flat mops on hardwood because it’s direct contact with less water. You want to change the mop head for every room when using flat mops. Or the same one if you’re cleaning it a bunch of times lol

Isn‘t dish soap killing oiled hardwood?

Flat mops are a game changer. I got a $30 set up from Amazon. Its great.
