Water and Wood Floors Clash in Homes
For people who love wood floors the text reminds that water and wood are natural enemies in a house. Hardwood floors absorb water and can warp buckle or stain when moisture is present, especially if not properly sealed or maintained.
Caring for Wood Floors Waxes And Cleaners
Homemakers should avoid water on wood floors. Use a water free or waterless cleaner suitable for wood, then apply several thin coats of wax containing carnauba. Water scrubbing can warp or buckle wood floors, so choose solvent based products per Iowa State University recommendations.

He cites driver blindness from no rear view mirror, deafness to approaching traffic, lack of protection, and high speed differences with other vehicles. Wardle urges restricting road use to necessity and recommends a rear-view mirror and a dual-color flag 2 to 3 feet above the driver’s head.
