a mop but with replaceable sponges on it
It's been going on for decades.. i've been the house cleaner since i was 10 or so - there's loads more my mum and sister hoard but making used mop water stretch for days and not understanding that cleaning tools get bad at cleaning past a certain point .. even though my sister used to work in a LAB! .. seems beyond anything they would do in public.
they wont admit they have emotional reasons for doing these things
if anyone can shed any light on what these behaviours are linked to and why both my mum and sister do it i'd love to know.
it feels inhereted as i have adhd -a diagnosed decision making disability and need things to be where i left them in my room but i need to have a clean and ordered bathroom and kitchen
my sister was a collector of anything from about 10 but it turned into hoarding by the time she was 20
I'm looking for a sponge mop like this one: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/182837219925 but more eco-friendly. Any recommendations? I've struggled to find anything available here in the UK.
Oates sponge refills cost $9 for a pair. That's a huge no-no. I refuse to pay so much for that.
Are there any cheaper alternatives that just snap onto an oates sponge mop?
I have mouths to feed and debtors to pay. Every single cent counts and oates makes it their business to bankrupt me to leave me hopeless and afraid, cold on the street having to sell my body for a pair of sponge mop refills that will last a grand total of 16 days before collapsing into itself.
please help.
Currently i have a robot vac with a mop attachment that you fill with water
My process now is to use the robot to vac, then have it mop and finally go over it with the steam vac, i was thinking i should use a sponge mop after the vac in order to use bleach and floor cleaner/ vinegar, since the robot vac just uses water
Should i forego the sponge mop, i feel that the robot vac would just move the dirt around, it does have a microfiber cloth to capture the dirt
This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 64%. (I'm a bot)
> Oil spills could be soaked up by a new floating substance that combines waste from the petroleum industry and cooking oil, according to new research led by South Australia's Flinders University.
> The new polymer, made from sulphur and canola cooking oil, acted like a sponge to remove crude oil and diesel from seawater, according to a new study published in the Advanced Sustainable Systems journal.
> The polymer can be squeezed to remove the oil and then reused.
> The lead researcher, Dr Justin Chalker, said it had the potential to be a cheap and sustainable recovery tool in areas affected by oil spills.
> The BP Deepwater Horizon explosion in 2010, which released 4.9m barrels of crude oil into the Gulf of Mexico, prompted new research efforts but large spills continue.
> The research team found the polymer created by combining the two not only absorbed oil but turned it into a gel.
