How to Clean Tile with Vinegar
To clean a tile floor with vinegar, first get rid of any loose dirt by sweeping or vacuuming the floor. Then, mix equal parts hot water and white vinegar in a bucket that's big enough to hold a mop. After you've made your vinegar solution, dip a mop in the bucket and wring out any excess liquid before mopping. Once you've gone over the floor with the vinegar and water solution, rinse out your mop and mop the floor a second time with plain, hot water.
