If your mop is very dirty or smells bad, you can often refresh it with a simple household ingredient instead of buying a new one. 🧽✨

Vinegar Mop-Cleaning Trick

What you need

• Hot water
• 1 cup white vinegar

How to do it

1. Fill a bucket or sink with hot water.
2. Add 1 cup of white vinegar.
3. Place the dirty mop head in the mixture.
