  • What do you use to mop your floor? I use Murphy's wood soap with hot water to mop my hardwoods (and no, it does not leave a film like what people think). I use Clorox cleanup with hot water on my tile floors.

    What's your go-to cleaner? I love Lysol 4 in 1 all purpose cleaner

    Favorite carpet cleaner? Spot Shot, but thankfully we don't have carpet anymore (besides an area rug in the living room)

    Do you try to be green when you clean?  How so? Eh, I really should, but I don't. The greenest it gets is by re-using old washcloths rather than using paper towels or using wipes. And I also use Clorox Greenworks from time to time.

    Anything else you want to add? I have a slight obsession with cleaning products. I get a bit giddy when I buy a new cleaning product and can't wait to get home to use it, ha!

  • What do you use to mop your floor? Depends on the cleaning, swiffer wet, shark steam mop that I share w/my mom at their condo or a mop and bucket

    What's your go-to cleaner? mostly use clorox wipes, so quick and easy

    Favorite carpet cleaner? We have a pet spot thing my mom gave us when we got Sadie, good thing too!  I will say club soda also works, the carbonization is amazing for lifting things

    Do you try to be green when you clean?  How so? Not right now, I'm still using up products and after that I want to be more conscious, but I'm not sure I can give up my clorox wipes or the anywhere spray.  I do love the steam mop and it just uses water.

    Anything else you want to add? I really need to find a good vacuum that does hard floors, carpeted stairs and carpet really well!

  • What do you use to mop your floor? 
    The kitchen I use either Pine-Sol, Simple Green, or Dawn dish soap.  It depends on what I have on hand. 
    The hardwood floors (basically the rest of the house) I use Murphy's Oil Soap.  DH just bought some Pledge cleaner for hardwood floors and that works well too. 
    In the bathrooms I get on my hands and knees and use the Costco brand wipes.

    What's your go-to cleaner?  The Costco brand wipes or Simple Green

    Favorite carpet cleaner?  I have a Bissel rug cleaner that I used twice.  Right now we have no more carpet in the house.  Hopefully we'll get a couple area rugs for the living rooms.

    Do you try to be green when you clean?  Nope though I should.
    How so?

    Anything else you want to add?  I love Simple Green!  It works on any surface and is non-toxic.  It's inexpensive too.  The instructions on the back say to dilute it with water depending on what you're cleaning.  I use it straight out of the bottle on everything except glass - it gets a haze if used straight on glass but the haze cleans off easily.

  • What do you use to mop your floor? 
    I use swiffer wetjet, but I'm getting a Shark Steam Mop for Christmas! I have too many hardwood floors to get on my hands and knees.  Also, regular Pledge makes them so slippery - I thought I was being clever, yeah it was an ice rink.

    What's your go-to cleaner?  windex

    Favorite carpet cleaner?  N/A

    Do you try to be green when you clean?  No, but I should.  New Years resolution - after my regular cleaner is gone I will use vinegar. ta-da!
