I sweep and mop my floors daily because for me it is easier to maintenance the cleaniness of your house if you do the cleaning regularly rather than only sweep or mop the floors only once or few days a week cos by that time,well the dust already accumulate and will then take longer time to finish the cleaning process.This is really tiring.

Will not tell a lie, but it gets done when it needs to be done. Actually it is my husband who does the vacuuming and not me, although sometimes I will be kind and mop the floor. The reason I don't sweep is simply because there is a high probability that the broom will fly away with me on it. At least that's my story and I am sticking to it, unless of course it suits me to change it, but so far in 36 years it hasn't. LOL
The only time these things are done, whether or not they are needing it, are just before we leave for a trip away somewhere and the first day we are back. I prefer to leave the place neat, tidy and clean when we go but it still needs doing when we come back.

Thanks for being so honest! My husband helped me clean our room, and it still needs straightening, but the majority of it is done. He also cleaned our bathroom! That is because his family is visiting. We have cleaning to do, and believe me I have tons of laundry to do! I am going to do some in 20 mins, or so! I agree, I hate coming back home to a dirty house!

I sweep or vacuum usually daily and then mop the kitchen and bathroom weekly. My daughter thinks I'm a neat freak but I hate sticky floors or crumbs under my feet. When you have three children, the floors cop a lot...

yes, you are right. I have to sweep and mop more often. I always have so much laundry to do. I guess I'll be getting rid of some things. I have kids, I know how it is!

I mop about once a week, and I vacuum more often than that. I should probably do it more often though, but once is week is good for me. It seems as soon as the floor is clean someone spills something or tracks mud in the house.

My husband is Felix Unger. He vacuums the floors everyday. He mops only once a week though. When he is finished he will ask why I don't do it. I say, well, when I do, you tell me I don't do it right. You enjoy cleaning, so why should I take away your pleasure.

I like your honesty! I feel the same way and it is so hard to have the floor as clean as I'd otherwise like it with so many other responsibilities and kids (same thing)

I do need to clean more often. We have so much clutter! I was just cleaning in the kitchen. I will be doing my bathroom soon. and I folded down clothes I still need to put away! YIKES! :(

I used to sweep and mop twice a week when my daughter was crawling around. But now that she is a bit older, I get more busy picking up toys than sweeping and mopping. So if there is a nasty spill on the kitchen floor, it gets mopped at that time.

I have to mop tonight. Our kitchen floor is our main traffic area. It never looks as if I've mopped it though. When I finish taking the christmas decorations down to the basement, I will sweep and mop my living room floor. Thanks for responding.

I sweep everyday. I mop every-other-day. And I vacuum about twice or three times a week.
