Tips for Maintaining and Buying a House Mop

If you don't pay attention to cleaning, the mop can become a breeding ground for some microorganisms and disease-causing bacteria. When using a house mop, you are most exposed to the organic components of the ground, which are used by fungi and bacteria. Microorganisms and bacteria such as molds, fungi, Candida and dust mites can grow rapidly when they are exposed to humidity for long periods of time. When using it later, not only can it not clean the ground, but it is more likely to cause the spread of bacteria and cause diseases such as respiratory tract, intestinal tract and allergic dermatitis.


Whether the mop head is made of cotton, cotton thread, collodion, microfiber, etc., as long as it is not thoroughly cleaned and dried, it is easy to breed harmful substances. Therefore, the first principle of choosing a house mop is to see whether it is easy to clean and dry. For mops used daily in the family, frequent disinfection is not recommended. Disinfection with disinfectant can easily cause unnecessary environmental pollution. And a disinfectant like potassium permanganate solution, which has its own color, is very water-intensive to clean after soaking. It is recommended that after each use of the mop, carefully wash it with clean water, put on gloves, wring the mop dry, and then spread out the head to dry. If you can, it is best to put it in a ventilated and well-lit place, making full use of the sun's ultraviolet rays for physical sterilization. If there is no balcony, or it is inconvenient to dry, it is best to move the mop to a dry and ventilated room when it is still dry, and then put it back in the bathroom after drying.
