Here are simple steps you can follow in cleaning your hardwood floors.

• If there are pets in the house, it is best to vacuum the floors first and remove pet hairs.

• Spray a dust mop twice or thrice with wood cleaner then dust mop the floor. A microfiber mop is highly recommended. This step not only removes loose dust and dirt but also wipes away grime that has accumulated on the surface, especially in the kitchen.
