String Mops

4/25/2016

0 Comments

 
String mopheads are useful for those bigger jobs, like cleaning an unfinished basement or garage floor. But there are different kinds of string mops to choose from. Here is a guide to string mopheads.
  • Cotton mopheads are very absorbent and work well for cleaning water on hard floors (tile, wood, concrete, etc.).
  • Rayon mopheads are stronger and release liquids more effectively. They work very well for applying finishes and using harsh cleaning products.
  • Synthetic mopheads are very strong and so they are a good choice in cleaning rough surfaces.
  • Blended mopheads (rayond and polyester and sometimes cotton) are the most durable. They are multipurpose tools.

Using the right mophead will make the job easier and the cleaning more effective.

The Little People

Even though we most often don’t even notice them, I think the objects in our home are actually, in how they affect us, like little people. If we let them get dusty and in disarray, we feel them sulking. And we have to spend some of our psychic energy channeling our focus away from their sulking. if we keep them clean and orderly, we feel them smiling. Rather than putting demands on our energy their smiling creates ease and peacefulness that supports us as we lounge or move about our home.

How to Choose a Cleaning Service

4/11/2016

I have a bias toward small companies but I think my bias is well founded. The smaller the company the easier to develop a long-term relationship with your cleaner. That’s because turnover among cleaning employees is notoriously high, and is worse, I believe, with larger companies. The second reason is that with a small service, the more personal relationships that exist within their business are likely to inspire more attentive cleaning among employees.
 
Of course, the best service is one (like mine) where the owner is the cleaner.
 
With any cleaning service you are considering hiring, check reviews online.

Tip for Efficient Cleaning

I have found that dusting the entire house and then vacuuming the entire house as two single operations and doing them first saves time. This idea comes originally from Jeff Campbell in his book, Speed Cleaning, highly recommended.
