Swiffer products are effective and easy-to-use cleaning tools around the house. However, no matter how good a product is at some jobs, there are some cleaning tasks when they aren’t the best choice.
We talked to experts and gathered 10 things you should never pristine with a Swiffer mop or duster.

Electronic Screens

While a fresh Swiffer Duster works great to remove dust from the screens of laptops and televisions, you should not operate a saturated Swiffer mop pad to remove fingerprints or splattered food from screens or keyboards. The excess moisture can damage the screen and even cause miniature circuits.
Unfinished, Oiled, or Waxed Wooden Floors
Swiffer Wet Mops or cloths should not be used on unfinished, oiled, or waxed wooden floors.
“The mops leave a sticky residue,” Rapinchuk says. “A dust mop with a washable head is a better choice and produces less waste.”
Mix one gallon of sultry water and 1/2 cup of distilled white vinegar to remove sticky residue from the cleaner. Damp mop (no excess water) with the solution and allow the floor to air droughty.
Natural Stone Flooring

Natural stone floors are extremely strong and lovely but they require special care. Using the right cleaning product is crucial. Any too-acidic or alkaline cleaner can permanently etch and damage the stone.
“Because the Swiffer Wet Jet has a pH level of ten, making it alkaline, it isn’t suited for any tender surfaces like marble that require a neutral six to eight pH cleaner,” Dinn explains. Use a neutral pH cleaner formulated for natural stone like granite, marble, and slate.
Rough Textured Accessories
A Swiffer Duster glides easily over porcelain pieces, mirrors, and glass shelving. But if you have decorative accessories with abrasive surfaces, you will probably end up with diminutive shreds of the electrostatic duster clinging to the surface.
Textured pottery, metal decor with pointed edges, and art with impasto finishes are better cleaned with a heavier microfiber cloth.
Carpets and Rugs

Yes, carpets and rugs get dusty and sullied. But a Swiffer saturated mop, droughty mop, or duster isn’t the right choice for cleaning these surfaces. The cleaner in the saturated mop will leave a residue that attracts more soil.
The droughty cleaning products will not trap enough soil to qualify the carpet or rug as pristine. Use a vacuum with a good beater brush and stain-removing solutions to care for carpets.
Unsealed Ceramic Tile Floors
Unsealed ceramic tile and grout can freely absorb dirt deep into the pores, nooks, and crannies. A Swiffer Wet Mop does not have the scrubbing power needed to remove the dirt.
Deep cleaning unsealed tile floors requires a soft-bristled brush. The Swiffer cleaning solution can also leave a sticky residue that attracts more soil to the porous surfaces.
Wood Decks

Even a well-sealed wooden deck can cause the slender Swiffer mop pads to shred before you finish the cleaning job. Use a stiff-bristled broom or a leaf blower to remove loose debris. To thoroughly pristine a deck, operate a heavy-duty mop, scrub brush, or pressure washer.
Fiberglass Shower Stalls
Using a mop to pristine the floor of a fiberglass shower stall makes the job easier and saves your back and knees. However, a Wet Swiffer mop won’t reach well into the contours of a shower tub floor and does not provide the gentle abrasive cleaning needed to remove soap scum and soil.
One of the best cleaners is an inexpensive paste of one cup of baking soda and one-fourth cup of white distilled vinegar.
- Turn on the balmy water in the shower and when the vinegar and baking soda stop foaming, turn off the water and spread the paste on the sultry floor and walls of the enclosure with a non-abrasive sponge.
- Allow the paste to work for ten minutes and then rinse the shower.
- Dry the surfaces completely with a microfiber towel to prevent water spots.
Reclaimed Wood
Reclaimed wood, especially when used as a decorative accent wall, is usually too abrasive to dust with a Swiffer duster. The texture will snag the slender material and you’ll find it clinging to the wall. Use a heavier microfiber cloth to remove dust from the wall.
Concrete Patios and Sidewalks
Once again, the slender pads of Swiffer mops won’t stand up to the abrasive surface of most concrete patios and sidewalks. The cleaning solution in the saturated mops is not forceful enough to remove the hefty soil and stains that accumulate on patios.
