How annoying are they :naraz:

you know its for easy cleaning right? then when you scale it left to right and back , the kachra and the hair go to the corners of the room , rather then sticking to the mop :smack:

any alternatives ? please no body tell me , pocha lagao … I hate pocha :teary2:

Re: Mops ..

Sara , pocha is like any random cloth , you just soak it and sit and clean the floor with it , bit by bit …it kills the legs and the back , you know like they do it in pakistan ..

Swiffer sounds good , actually I was looking at it one day and was thinking , is it easy to clean it? or do we have to spend money on getting new cleaner sheet every few weeks/months when the old ones gone :hmmm:

Re: Mops ..

I scrub the floors using the kitchen paper towel but then I only have tiles in the kitchen and bathroom so it works out well.. I can't imagine doing that in the whole apartment. :$

I guess its similar to pocha.. the only difference is I doit with my feet rather than hands... yes I literally dance around kitchen and bathroom while chit chatting on phone. :D

Swiffer uses disposable pads that are supposed to be replaced every time u use it. but im sure most people use them at least 2-3 times (depending on how heavy the cleaning was and how often u use it).
the pads cost about $5-8 USD for a box of 15 so I dont think thats very expensive?

Re: Mops ..

hareem :hayaa: … mate its so difficult :no:

Sara , i am trying to avoid any mops or cleaning equipment where i might have to use disposable stuff … Like i am a clean freak … and really have to clean almost two to three times a day , even if we spend £10 , that does make a good amount , hai na …

so , I guess we will have to look at other options :hmmm:

GTG , you dance around the kitchen :omg: yeah i like that :yahoo:

Re: Mops ..

I always sweep and then mop.. no hair nothing.

Mop is a good idea .. you don't have to throw it. I use it and after I am done I put it outside to dry.

Re: Mops ..

I always vaccum before mopping, so there is no dust or hair left on the ground....but I dont mop 2-3 times a day like you, so maybe vaccuming each time is not a good idea for you!

Re: Mops ..

I know midnight , i used to do that before , but running to get the vacuum everytime is such a hassle :no:

same here..

Re: Mops ..

:naraz: .. I think i might be overdoing the cleaning then … I need to do it once a day makes a note

Re: Mops ..

You need to sweep/vacuum the floor before you mop.
Swiffer is the best thing after the sliced bread.

Re: Mops ..

GTG , I hardly make any mess , but my husband ..toba toba …:naraz: .. .actually we have floor boards downstairs , so he take the shoes everywhere and I run after him with a mop :cb:

Masi, your khala does sound like me :eek:

Re: Mops ..

After sweeping the floor, get on your knees and mop the floor with Pinesol that has been diluted in a bucket of water and a nice large mop cloth. That's the best way to get a sparkly clean floor trust me!

Nikki :crying: getting on the knees and mopping is so painful , I dread it so much :0
