I've been using ammonia - but I HATE the smell. It's giving me asthma attacks. I just dont' know what to try to add to mop water. Any suggestions? Thank you |
Please Please STOP using ammonia to mop your floors. This stuff can be fatal to your puppies. If it's giving you asthma imagine what it is doing to your puppy's lungs. It is way too strong for everyday household use. I suggest vinegar and water. Or bleach and water. The bleach should only be about 1/3 cup per gallon of water.
When either bleach or ammonia are mixed with urine (peepee) dangerous fumes are created...it is not good to breath the fumes so make sure you have plenty of fresh air moving thru in the area. Ammonia is especially dangerous. AND never never never mix ammonia and bleach in the same container...the result can be death.
I'm using a product called
Fabuloso Floor Cleaner.....and it is so great. Smells great and leaves the whole house smelling clean. Smells like lavender....doesn't leave a residue. You can get it at Walmart or your local Dollar Store. And it's pretty CHEAP.
