SWEEPING: A PROPER TECHNIQUE FOR CLEANING THE FLOOR?


When we think of cleaning, the image of a broom is one of the first that comes to mind. Composed of a stick and a brush attached to one end ( which can be of different types depending on the floor ), the broom is used to clean the floor ... or not? Sweeping may not be the most appropriate technique for this, after all. In this article we tell you why.

The sweep technique

In theory, the purpose of the sweep is to remove dust and dirt not adhering to the floor . The technique is simple: it consists of pushing the brush on the ground, dragging the dirt to the same point, where, later, it is collected with the help of a dustpan and transferred to the garbage.

When sweeping a surface, it is advisable not to sweep towards yourself, but to the side, taking care not to step on the accumulated dirt or pass next to it causing small air currents that can disperse it. For this same reason, it is essential to keep windows and exits closed, given the possibility of drafts.

It is also important to take special care in transferring collected dust and dirt to the trash. The closer we are to the place of deposit, the better. Each step taking the full collection from one place to another supposes a small loss of everything collected on the way.


Disadvantages of sweeping: when is it advisable to use the broom?

However, sweeping is a very limited method that is rarely used in professional cleaning due to its drawbacks. It is an ineffective and unhygienic technique, since much of the dust that is intended to be collected easily returns to the environment, both on the floor and on the furniture, as well as impregnating our own clothes. In addition, all this movement of dust also causes us to breathe it during the task, with the damages that this can cause .

For all this, sweeping is not the best option when cleaning the floor. Yes, it is, however, when we want to remove larger waste from the ground , such as crumbs, pieces of paper, cigarette butts or other waste. If it is only dust and small pieces of dirt, better to resort to other methods.

Alternatives to cleaning the floor

The best alternative to clean the floor, prior to wet methods such as the mop, is the vacuum cleaner. The suction force of the vacuum cleaner, unlike the push of the broom, quickly removes dust and dirt from any surface, without the inconvenience of drafts and the volatility of tiny debris.

How to sweep


Sweeping keeps the floor free of unsightly and unsanitary dust and debris and is often the first step in larger cleaning projects. Although sweeping may seem like a common sense task to most people, there is a right way and a wrong way to do it. Learning a few simple tricks like choosing the most suitable type of broom for the floor you are sweeping and working from the edges of the room towards the center will help you reduce work and allow you to enjoy your day again.

Part 1 Sweep efficiently


1
Drag the head of the broom across the ground in short, deliberate movements. Hold the broom with both hands, placing one hand on top and the other near the center, moving it from away from the body inward. As you do this, the bristles will push whatever debris is on the ground in the direction you are sweeping. [one]

  • The shorter the movements, the more control you will have. The idea is to gather all the waste in a central place, not just move it around without sense.
  • Resist the urge to sweep too fast or too hard. Doing so can cause dust clouds to form, which will then settle on the recently swept section.

2
Start at the edges of the room and work towards the center. Move debris away from baseboards and out into an open space, where you can stack it up for easy pickup later. You may need to tilt the broom when you reach corners, cupboards, or low cabinets to ensure the bristles reach the deepest corners. [2]

  • It is also a good idea to proceed from the far side of the room towards the door or entryway. That way, you won't be forced to go back to look for the dirt you missed.
  • For very large rooms, it is best to divide the floor into small sections and treat each section as a separate space. [3]

3
Take a break from time to time to clean the broom. Objects such as hair, lint, and lint have a tendency to get caught in the bristles of the broom. When this happens, put the broom on a wastebasket and remove the impurities by hand. You can then sweep again without having to worry about transferring dirt from one place to another on the floor. [4]

  • Make sure to wash your hands after touching anything that has been in contact with the ground.

4
Pick up the pile you have been making with a shovel to get rid of it. Once you've swept the edges of the room, focus on scooping up the accumulated debris with the shovel. Then carefully lift the shovel, empty the contents into a nearby garbage container, and voila! [5]

  • Consider switching to a compact hand broom at this point so you can pick up small piles with greater precision. [6]

Tip: Use short strokes and apply softer pressure with the bristles to help you scoop up more debris with the shovel.


5
Use the "drawbridge" technique to work around annoying shovel lines. Sometimes after sweeping a bunch of debris onto the shovel, you will notice a thin line of dust left on the front edge of the shovel. When this happens, tilt the shovel handle at a steep angle keeping the edge pressed firmly against the ground. This will allow you to sweep the dust over the threshold before "lowering the drawbridge" and trapping it on the shovel. [7]

  • This method is very useful if your shovel has too thick a rim to allow dust and smaller debris to pass through easily.
  • You can also simply vacuum or wipe off dust lines that are too difficult for you to corner with the broom. [8]





Part 2 Simplify the sweep


1
Stick with compact floors. If the surface you want to clean is wood, tile, laminate, stone, concrete, marble, metal, or another solid material, go ahead and sweep hard. Instead, carpets, rugs, and other padded surfaces should be vacuumed. [9]

  • You can also vacuum with a "tight floor" setting over most types of solid floors to clean them in less time. [10]
  • On less common flooring materials, such as bamboo, cork or straw, you have the option of sweeping or vacuuming. Choose the method that you think will give you the best results.

2
Clear the area of ​​any possible obstructions. Before you begin, take a moment to remove or relocate any objects that are in the way that may slow or hinder work. This includes things like furniture, decorations, rugs, and other things that often end up on the floor. [eleven]

  • Take rugs and other floor coverings outside and shake them well to prevent them from spreading dust on the newly swept floor once you are ready to put them back in place.
  • When you sweep around tables, push the chairs back to make it easier for you to get the broom under the table.

3
Clean up wet debris before sweeping. If a spill has occurred, find a mop or grab a roll of paper towels. Brooms are best suited for picking up dry debris such as dust, dirt, hair, crumbs, and pieces of broken objects. They won't be of much help with puddles, splashes, and the like. [12]

  • Trying to sweep up soft, slippery foods or liquids will only spread the mess to other parts of the floor, and could even ruin the bristles on your broom.

4
Choose an appropriate broom for the area you are sweeping. A regular straight bristle broom will work great for sweeping most floors. However, it may be better to use a push broom with a wide head if you have a lot of ground to cover. In the same way, soft mops are useful for collecting dust in large, open indoor areas such as hallways, offices, and gyms. [13]

  • Not all brooms are the same. There are brooms with different head shapes, handle lengths, and bristle materials, all of which influence how they can clean.
  • Unless you are sweeping outdoors, you will also need a shovel. Today, most brooms are sold alongside dustpan scoops for convenience, but you can get one for a few dollars if you don't have one. [14]

Tip: Natural fiber bristles tend to clean textured surfaces like wood, concrete, and brick better, while synthetic bristles glide effortlessly over smoother floors.


Tips
  • Get in the habit of sweeping the floors every other day. Some types of debris can become a big mess or even damage delicate surfaces when stepped on.
  • Place doormats inside and outside of every entrance to the house to minimize the amount of debris dragged onto the floors.
  • When it's time to put your broom away, tuck it in the closet with the bristles facing up to avoid breaking or bending. If you want to make the broom last as long as possible, hang it up.
