What does everybody mop their floors with, I have mainly tiles and wooden flooring and think that maybe I should use something milder to mop as Vin seems to react to my floor cleaner.  Smile

Steam cleaner plus:

Ecover linseed oil floor soap. It's supposed to be for wood but I use it everywhere as I really like the smell.

Or - Zoflora disinfectant. It's fine for pets. It smells REALLY strong (of "spring" or lavender or whatever scent you choose), so I only use a little (you dissolve it in water). You can get it at Poundland as well as Sainsbury's etc.

Very occasionally I also scrub the floor with the above.

ps with steam cleaners, I use at least two or three big cloths or microfibre cloths (both sides) per room, as otherwise, yes, it does not feel clean.

We have some pet odour remover/cleaner thing that we just add to the mop bucket. Smells alright and is safe for pets obviously Smile

We have laminate wood flooring and ceramic tiles, carpet is only in the bedroom. Laminate flooring gets cleaned with the wooden floror wipes like pledge I think. Carpet is vacuumed ceramics tiles cleaned with a mop and Cif floor cleaner.

We do have a steam cleaner somewhere, don't think it has been used yet.

Mop and put some washing powder if Lula done something she should not of done in doors. At other times i use bleach in the kitchen and living room. I`m thinking of getting a stream cleaner as my sister swears by them.
zoflora reminds me of my uncle who passed away years ago he loved dogs and always used it.
