How Do You Use Tea To Clean Wood Floors?
Cleaning hardwood floors with black tea, also known as grandma’s little secret to getting your floors squeaky clean, is an old trick. When it is brewed strong, the tannic acid in the tea will clean your floors and also will add an amazing shine to your hardwood floors. This method also is good if you would like to restore old wood by making it look newer. Boil water in a pot or kettle. Add five to 10 tea bags to the boiling water and let it steep for at least 10 minutes. Pour the tea into a bucket. Dampen a cloth or mop with the tea. Ring out the cloth or mop so it is damp and not dripping. Wash the floors with the cloth or mop. Continue to wring out and dampen the cloth or mop throughout the cleaning process. Let the floor air dry. Enjoy the shine and cleanliness of your floors.
