mopping methods

Lake Toxaway, NC(Zone 7a)

I have an odd way of mopping but I think I get cleaner floors with this effort. First, I clean a toilet. Then I mix the cleaner with hot water in a container and spill a little on the floor in a small area. After I mop the area, I rinse the mop out in the toilet and flush the dirty water away. Then I move to next area and repeat. This prevents me from putting the dirty mop into the bucket with the cleaner which causes one to mop with dirty water. Each time the mop goes back into the cleaner with the dirt on it, the cleaner water gets dirtier and dirtier. With my method, you never use dirty cleaner/water solution on the floors.
