protect or maintain a home and to add a sense of style. Before buying, it is
important to know their material, purpose, durability, and maintenance.
Rubber Floor Mats
Strategically placing floor around the house will make life
easier for you. Constantly cleaning the house can be infuriating and
inconvenient. Place at the entrance of the room, by the bedside, and anywhere
else you feel the need to. Wipe your feet on these before jumping into bed or
curling into your sofa to avoid dirtying them. It is also best to avoid wearing
slippers inside the house. If you must, there are bedroom slippers meant for
indoor use. To prevent bringing outdoor mess into your home, leave your shoes
at the door or arrange them neatly on a shoe rack near the entrance. Wipe
outdoor footwear thoroughly with a dry cloth before bringing them into your
home. These tips are simple and following them will greatly improve your home's
cleanliness. Indoor floor are usually made of absorbent materials such as
cloth, rayon, and cotton. Bamboo floor are generally decorative pieces. Because
of their absorbent nature, indoor Rubber Flooring are not meant for constant
friction. They should not be used to wipe solid dirt off shoes and slippers.
Their purpose is to dry your feet and indoor slippers.
Tub/Bath Mats

of absorbent materials such as cotton, cloth, rayon, wool, and the like. Place
a bath mat at the foot of the tub and at the bathroom entrance. Often, while

footing and hurt yourself on a slippery floor. Right placement of bath will

take constant friction and should be made of non absorbent materials.

broom or brush. Bath mats and indoor floor can be machine washed. Soak them in
detergent for some time if you are to hand wash them. It is also good to have
