How to Properly Dry a Wet Mop: A Guide to Avoiding Mold and Bacteria Growth
To dry a wet mop, first wring it out as much as possible to remove excess water. Then, hang the mop outside in the sun or in a well-ventilated area, ensuring that the mop head is fully exposed to air and not in contact with any surfaces. Alternatively, you can place the mop head in a well-ventilated area and use a fan to speed up the drying process. Make sure that the mop is completely dry before using it again to prevent the growth of bacteria.
