mopping does not make any sense 5

does anyone here know how to mop?
serious question.
i have asked a number of people spanning several generations and all of them agree that mopping doesnt make sense.
i mean you have one bucket filled with water, where you wet your mop, gather dirt from the floor and then deposit the dirty water back into.. where you wet your mop again 
clearly this is a closed system of spreading dirty water along a dirty floor.
and then knowing when to squeeze out the water and planning the job so you dont get footprints on the clean floor is all a bit much.
mopping is the worst and possibly made up.
if anyone could shed light on what everyone is doing wrong or on the origins of this huge scam it would be much appreciated.

lol i've never thought about it like that. but yeah you're right it makes no sense. i think the illusion stems from the fact that merely making a surface wet makes it appear to be cleaner.

You raise some good points, but please consider the following:
Assuming you swept first and maintain a relatively clean house, when you mop you are simply diluting the dirt significantly rather than getting absolutely clean as your post suggests. By mixing the dirty mop in the water, swishing, and then wringing, you are using relatively clean water.
I also add vinegar to the water to really clean. I don't use a mop. I am old school. On hands and knees with a rag.
Peace.

It works much better if you:
Soak the mop in your cleaning solution, wring it out only very lightly or not at all. Mop and spread the water around. Leave it a few minutes, then take the mop again, wrung out as much as you possibly can, and mop the water up (wringing it out as needed).

I like to get down on my hands and knees with a sponge and a bucket of soapy water and then wipe everything I "mop" with a dry towel as soon as I'm done with that spot. For the exact reasons you mentioned. Mopping never made sense to me either, I always just assumed I did it wrong which is why I switched to scrubbing the floor by hand.

Pro-mopping crew here, I mean obviously you add fucking intense cleaners to your water and change it out if it gets too dirty. The mop has more of a propensity for dropping the dirt into the water than picking it up out of it.
Still a little gross I see your point, but mopping does clean things. Especially sticky shit.

i mop my tiled kitchen pretty regularly. the trick is sweeping first to get the dirt/dust off. then mop to remove anything that might have spilled/dripped on the floor
The point of mopping your floor is to make it look nice, not to make it clean enough to eat off of.

What's the purpose of using a toilet scrub brush on your toilet? It's just gonna have piss and shit water on it again and it's not like 100% of the dirty water makes it out of the toilet when you flush.
I mean really if you don't see the purpose in mopping or the above example, I dunno that you'll ever get it. Mopping is to get up residues or break up caked on dirt/grime and to a certain extent, disinfection. Same reason you use the scrub brush on your toilet.

.
The mopwater is supposed to germicide/bleach/lysol depending how intense the grossness of what you're mopping is.
Anyone who has experience mopping knows that as long as you change out the mop water regularly, mopping does in fact clean the floor.

Mopping makes sense because of the polarity of the water molecule.
Have you ever noticed that however dirty your water is, your hands always come out cleaner than they were before you soaked them in?
That how mopping works. The floor get cleaner when you mop it.

im no pro mopper lol but i have done my fair share of mopping.
What i do is dump the dirty water often. Sometimes its one mop "session" and the mop bucket is compeltely gross ans has to be dumped. Then i thourghly rinse the mop head, top to bottom, insides too, untill it looks totally clean, then rinse out the mop bukcet, refill the mop bucket and dunk the cleaned mop head in there.
If the mop head makes the clean mop bucket completely dirty again, then it means i fucked up and didnt finse that mop enough enough, so i rinise it again, but usually keep the mop bucket water cause it takes so long to fill.
In short, dump mop bucket water frequently, rinse mop head frequently, use lots of water at every rinse step.
Enjoy that mopping experience

Soak the mop in your cleaning solution, wring it out only very lightly or not at all. Mop and spread the water around. Leave it a few minutes, then take the mop again, wrung out as much as you possibly can, and mop the water up (wringing it out as needed).
Still that goes from dirty AF to looking clean AF. Rarely would I say you can mop any floor and get it hygienically clean enough to really matter.

There is the alternate method - letting your floors get so dirty that a layer of crusty debris forms which you can then simply scrape off in layers with a snow shovel. I say this because I do it with dog shit on my wood floors. If I can't pick it up right after it's dropped then I just let it sit there and dry up, then use a spatula to peel it off the floor...

quinn said: does anyone here know how to mop?
serious question.
i have asked a number of people spanning several generations and all of them agree that mopping doesnt make sense.
i mean you have one bucket filled with water, where you wet your mop, gather dirt from the floor and then deposit the dirty water back into.. where you wet your mop again 
clearly this is a closed system of spreading dirty water along a dirty floor.
and then knowing when to squeeze out the water and planning the job so you dont get footprints on the clean floor is all a bit much.
mopping is the worst and possibly made up.
if anyone could shed light on what everyone is doing wrong or on the origins of this huge scam it would be much appreciated.
/not reading all replies in thread
SPOT-MOPPING is the only form of mopping that makes any kind of sense, unless you are talking a small floor (like a home kitchen). even then, i personally find that to be ridiculous

Mopping makes memories. I like to do figure 8s when I mop and sing 80s songs. We were all highschool janitors in our previous life. What I hate is when someone mops a floor before sweeping. I've seen this inadequate practice on more than one occasion. That's like showering then shitting immediately there-after.

THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I'VE SAID ALL ALONG.
Mopping is dirty. You're just spreading around dirt and filth everywhere. It doesn't really make anything clean. People also don't properly clean their mops, so those things are disgustingly dirty.
Mopping does not really clean anything. Every establishment that I ever worked at that mopped their floors, even with industrial-strength cleaner, if you swiped your finger on the floor you would get a grey slime on your finger.
I prefer to clean the floors Japanese style. With a small wet hand towel that's folded. You change the surface periodically throughout. Then you throw the towel into the laundry.

If you think people's mops are gross
Take a look at dish sponges
In most houses I've observed, these are consistently filthy
So I always keep my own sponge, its cleaned before / during / after use. Wiping grease and chunks of food on your dishes is just disgusting.

I don't know, leftover cooked food remnants doesn't gross me out nearly as much as what's underneath the bottom of people's shoes.
This is why I always take shoes off at the entrance of the house. Wearing shoes indoors is filthy. You wear those shoes in public restrooms outdoors.
Also, whenever I am finished washing dishes, I use Comet crystal bleach to sterilize and clean the entire sink area with the sponge. This deters cockroaches living deep inside the drain from coming out. It also sterilizes my sponge somewhat.
I always make sure to squeeze and wrench out every last drop of liquid in the sponge too once I'm finished with it. If you leave any moisture or water or soap in it, microbes start to grow in there, and that's what starts to cause that funky smell in the sponge. Then you have to throw it away and get a whole new one.

Depends. In my old house in California, there was almost no dust, and since I wiped the floors clean every single day, I would only catch a couple of hairs or dropped hemp seeds or whatever on the ground. There was no dirt or grime or dust or anything on the towel, the towel was perfectly white. So in that case I would throw it in my laundry with everything else.
But in my old house in Long Beach or Philadelphia, those two areas got suuuuper dusty. No matter how often I cleaned it would be filled with dust all over again. And the towels got suuuper grimey every time I washed the floors with them. So those I wouldn't throw in the laundry, I hand-clean in the sink with detergent or bleach and then hang-dry.

Yea mopping does nothing if you do it illogically. It's best to rinse your mop under running water after scrubbing the floor with it, before putting it back in the bucket of water/cleaner.

Use a slightly bleach solution, about 10%.
This disinfects by spreading bleach. Also, a decent amount of dirt and grime is solubilized. I dump out dirty mop water when I'm finished.

sponges are bacteria magnets, comet is an abrasive cleaner, not a sterilizing agent, cockroaches dont live in drains, not even deep down inside them, they enter drains for water and once they have it they leave. cockroaches living in pipes wouldnt make it past the trap because they dont like swimming. roaches like to live in warm, dry, dark places. not the cold, wet places such as pipes

I had a friend that worked as a biomedical engineer after he discharged from the navy, he said when they got returns on instruments that they often had tissues still on them and that you dont want a solution of bleach any stronger than 10% because many pathogens will secrete a protective substance to protect themselves from stronger solutions. 10% is weak enough that they wont see it as a threat but strong enough to kill them
I mop twice, once with water to take up the bulk of the dirt, a second time with bleach to sanitize and lift the remaining dirt

A lot of people especially older generations don't really rasp the concept of germs and many of the activities they consider cleaning like spreading a dirty mop around the floor or washing all your dishes with the same filthy rag (gathering a bit of grime from each dish and spreading it to each other dish) are basically perfect methods For maximum spread of bacteria
Some people even wash lettuce in their disgusting filthy sinks that have more bacteria than a toilet
When you mop you need scalding hot water and a healthy dose of white vinegar
High temperature . High pressure water. White vinegar and hydrogen peroxide.
Don't cook or wash food In your fucking sink. And you need a clean cloth after each time you wash dishes don't leave a wet filthy rag in your sink to use next time.

Some mop buckets have dividers for the clean/dirty water. These make sense to me.
I worked in a restaraunt for a while. It was my first time mopping. They never said to put soap in, so i just scrubbed with water. The first week or so they kept saying "damn, you do a good job cleaning these floors" and I'm all Then eventually i figured the soap out and it still never made sense to me.
Mopping is a total scam.

 Many if not most industrial mop buckets these days have two separate compartments, one for the dirty wrung-out water and one for the clean water. Even with a one-bucket mop, any dirt or grime redeposited should be sanitized. The amount is minimal as Pris said, but if you want to be obsessive about it, do it a few times- Sweeping -> mopping -> scrubbing/deck brushing -> sweeping -> mopping/dry-mopping.

Imagine if everybody stopped mopping their floors. Fucking gross haha. Its not hard to refill a bucket with water, and like people said there are plenty of buckets that have strainers in them. I mop my floors once a week usually haha.

So how do those work? Do you swish the mop in the dirty water first, then back in the clean water?

You don't put the mop in the dirty water at all, it just collects the dirty water which was wrung out of the mop. So, you're using it like any one-compartment mop bucket.

Dude. Get a sponge and get on your hands and knees.
And wear one of these

And then post pics of you scrubbing so we can tell you if you're doing it right. It would be best if you take a timed shot from behind you so that we can see the floor you've already cleaned as well.

I've mopped at work, but everybody has told me that I have improper technique when I mop, that I look like I'm dancing and not really mopping.
I've never seen an extra compartment to put 2 separate tanks of water in those yellow mop buckets, I've only seen 1 compartment to put water in, and that lever squeezes out all the extra water. Maybe I just don't know how to use it correctly. I never thought to Youtube "how to use a mop" before. 
But at home like I said, I don't mop at home. I'm old school and use a damp towel and get on my hands and knees and wipe with cleaner or water, depending on how dirty it is.

i do something similar by getting semi wet rags, and wiping the floor with them using my feet (usually covered in shoes).
Ive used those industrail mopper buckets, but i dont ring them out cause the dirty water just gets into the good water in the bucket. I just dip the mop in the bucket water a few times, then dump outb the nasty ass water when it gets super nast.

quinn said: does anyone here know how to mop?
serious question.
i have asked a number of people spanning several generations and all of them agree that mopping doesnt make sense.
i mean you have one bucket filled with water, where you wet your mop, gather dirt from the floor and then deposit the dirty water back into.. where you wet your mop again 
clearly this is a closed system of spreading dirty water along a dirty floor.
and then knowing when to squeeze out the water and planning the job so you dont get footprints on the clean floor is all a bit much.
mopping is the worst and possibly made up.
if anyone could shed light on what everyone is doing wrong or on the origins of this huge scam it would be much appreciated.
Hello, and Welcome to:
NTD's Mop TipsTip 1: When the mop water has absorbed a significant amount of dirt form the floor it changes color. By the time it's a dark color it's a good idea to empty and refill the bucket. Tip 2: To avoid getting footprints on your freshly mopped floor, make sure to begin mopping at the end of the room opposite from your exit. Tip 3: Add some vinegar. It's a good sanitizing agent.

Well, floors are just treated as dirty places in most cultures..because they are. Mops do a good job of removing visible signs of filth from the floor, but they do not create a food safe surface. Just take your shoes off at the door when you get home, and treat something that falls on the floor as dirty
