Removing Furniture Polish from Wood Floors?

My housecleaners used my Bona furniture polish to clean my wood floors. Now we are slip sliding all over the place! You should see our poor dog. What do I do to fix it?

There are two things. Just to tame the product, use a clean mop...yes, they say not to use mop on wood floors, but I ALWAYS mop mine and after 10 yes, they are still pretty, shiny, & clean! (Just wring it out well) With the clean mop, mop the floor with water and a little dawn dishwashing liquid. Then rinse mop well, and go back over it with plain clean water.
If you want to remove the product completely, use 1/4-1/2 cup of clear ammonia in your mop bucket with hot water. Be sure to wring the mop well, mop a 3-4 foot square, then rinse mop. Go to the next square and repeat. Be sure to change the water when it starts to get dirty. Its a pain, and strong smelling, but it gets any film off of hardwood floors. It took 3 hours to get a film off of mine from using a wood floor "cleaner"! Now I mop with ammonia once every month or two to remove everything.
