Use a Sock as Alternative to Swiffer Cloth

To save on purchasing those disposable paper Swiffer cloths, or if you've run out of them, simply slide an old white sports sock onto the head of your Swiffer. (tube or crew socks work well). You can dust your walls, reach cobwebs, clean ceiling fan blades, lamp shades, etc., then throw away the sock, or launder and reuse! This saves time and saves money. Those odd socks that are left over when the washing machine eats the matching sock now can be re- purposed!

Source: I found an odd sock in the laundry chute, saw a dust bunny and my swiffer had no refills left in the box; so I improvised! It works very well and I'll wash and re-use that handy white sock!

Also, spritz the sock lightly with Endust before cleaning up dust. But, do not spray the sock over a floor because the floor will become slippery! It's a great product - just use appropriately.

I use pieces of an old towel. Rip it up big enough to wrap around the mop and poke it into the holes on the top of the mop. It doesn't matter if parts of it stick out.

Then I hose most of the nasty dirt off into my garden before I put it in the wash.
