    Yep, practically boiling water and eucaltpyus and lavender oil, and a mop.

    A microfibre 'pad' style mop, like an Enjo, a few drops of a cleaning oil blend which I make up (lavender, tea-tree, eucalyptus & lemon), and as I go around the house I splash down a bit of just boiled water and vinegar. Easy as.

    I've always used hot water & refilled my bucket 3 or 4 times while mopping & I used to use the eco floor cleaning stuff. Then I go over it with a towel under my feet to get whats left & dry it.
    Now I usually just use hot water & dishwashing liquid, but I use vinegar for a million other things & always have lavender & tea tree for the kids hair, so I'll be using that from now on!
    I was a dettol fanatic when the kids were crawling!

    I (well, DP does) vacuum once a week (we both work full time, so our floors dont get too dirty we have dark colored tiles) then i use vinegar in hot water and spray it over my floor - I use the sabco microfibre mop (comes with 2 heads, 1 for wet, 1 for dry) and mop it with that If there is a dirt mark or 'stain' there is a little piece of rough fabric attached to the head and i use my foot over the top to scrub it.

    Dont have any crawling bubba's (YET!!) but I'm sure when the floor is used nmore often I will have to mop more often
