Accordingly, can you use dish soap to mop the floor?
Mopping — Add a few drops of dish soap to a bucket of water and your floors will sparkle. Surface cleaning — You don't need special cleaning solutions for your countertops and walls. Just add a few drops of dish soap to warm water and scrub them clean.
Mopping your floors with Vinegar is safe for most all floor types including wood floors. Mopping a floor with crumbs still on it can cause the starches in the crumbs to turn to gluten and create spots that are very difficult to clean. Mix together 1/4 cup of white vinegar with a 1 quart of water in your bucket.
