Woman shares ‘genius’ hack which leaves floors sparkling without water getting dirty

Anyone who uses a mop to clean their floors knows how quickly the mop can get filthy – leaving you feeling like all the effort you just made was pointless.

However, one woman may have changed the game after she shared a ‘mind-blowing’ cleaning hack which ensures your floor comes out sparkly clean each time.

Samina Iltaf, aka cleaning queen @samina_iltaf, shared a video where she showed a wide Vileda bucket with has a spin function for her mop, which gets rid of the excess water.

Normally, the dirty excess would drop straight down into the bucket, and you’d then have to dip your mop back into the now-mucky water.

But instead, she placed a separate bucket with clean water into the wide bucket – essentially separating the dirty from the clean water.

That means when she spins the mop to get rid of the excess dirty water, it stays separate from the clean bucket.

Speaking to The Mirror, she explained: “Instead of mixing the mop into dirty water after every use I used a small bucket filled with warm clean water and floor cleaner.



The influencer demonstrated how clean the floors were after using the hack

“Once the area of the floor is moped nicely, I would then rinse out any dirty water left that I used in the first round.

“I then go onto using the clean water washing the mop ready for round two, then rinsing it clean.

“This becomes less dirty as you can see the results are shown in the video.”

TikTok viewers who took to the comment section were amazed by Samina’s results, with one person saying: “Brilliant hack!”
