Cleaning the Floor by Hand

Knee Pads for Scrubbing the Floor by HandWe live in a small house which makes cleaning more often a must. I have found that it's easy to get on my hands and knees and scrub the floor with a rag, plus I can wipe the baseboards off as I go.

It's rough on the knees though, especially during the summer months when you are in shorts. I found a pair of soft knee pads in the garden center at Walmart and they make scrubbing much more comfortable.

Likekinds, easier as in necessity. Due to back fusion, I can't do much bending over for any length of time. And you have me figured. I'm all of the above. Thanks.

This is a photo of my garden knee pads. I found these in the Sporting goods section at Walmart. They work great.

Likekinds, I too clean my floors by hand. Yes, I feel it is a better job of cleaning than any commercial floor cleaning products. I compare it to a carwash....you get a more detailed clean if done by hand rather than running it through an automatic carwash.

Littergitter, I think the knee pads are a great idea, will try it!

I stopped by to thank you, again. The last time I was working in my attic, the pain was so bad I had to stop. This time, I wore the newly purchased knee pads I got from Walmart for about 4 dollars. A world of difference. No pain at all! Keep the great tips coming, LG.

I think you can get into corners much better on your knees than with any long-handled brush or mop.I use a cushion stuffed in a plastic bag but kneepads sound much better - so long as I can get down there! Cheers Litterglitter.
