  4. When these hours pass, we drain it and let it dry in the open air and in plenty of sun.
  5. Once it dries completely, we will have it ready to use again.

Recommendations:

A very good tip to not only wash the mop but also whiten it, is to add a splash of bleach to the mixture while it sits in the bucket for hours. In reality, as a disinfectant measure, we can always leave the mop or mop in the bucket with bleach or chlorine and thus use it without worry.

Another recommendation is to protect our hands when handling these cleaning elements and products. The best way is to use latex gloves, thus preventing our hands from drying out or even getting hurt.

When we no longer use it at the end of the day, the suggestion is to wash it well and let it dry in the sun. Let’s remember that if we leave it wet it will trigger fungi, bacteria and other agents that are harmful to health.
