When handling moldy materials, you can follow US Environmental Protection Agency's home mold prevention recommendations(opens in a new window)treatment and note the on-site and material restrictions.

  • Wooden floor: Maintain dryness, avoid water accumulation
  • Tiles: Neutral cleaner, regular scrubbing of gaps
  • Carpet: Regular vacuuming, professional cleaning every six months

  2. Select specialized cleaners that meet the material's pH value
  3. Use high-quality microfiber mops
  4. Regularly check the wear level of floor mats
