How handy. I just moved to hardwood floors and picked up a swiffer on freecycle. Was trying to figure of the best way to secure them since the wether type doesn’t have those indents to catch the cloth. Thanks!

I cut up some fleece scraps for my dust mop. I like the results from that better than the generic disposables.

Some of the generic refills really, really suck. You think you are saving money but then you use more to do the same job. LIFE brand refills are a good example of this. I’ve long been a ‘flipper’ but it never ocurred to me to wash them before – nice tip! Also I have done the same with my WetJet, just cut a hole in the top and use my own organic cleaner – or just water. A word of caution though – some cleaners will clog the spray nozzle, and they will also evaporate through the hole in the top.

Before I made the switch to microfibre I hacked a solution for my swiffer solution. I cut a hole in the top (or I guess bottom) of the bottle and poured my own cleaning solution in with a funnel. Suppose you could do the same when using microfiber and just put water in and give a spray when you need?

And before I did that – I got a spray bottle from the $ store and filled that with my solution and would spray, mop, spray, mop.

Oh are you talking about the swiffer sweeper? Well no problem, this is a solution for the swiffer wet jet
