🤑 Reusable mop pads for your Swiffer Wet Jet, but of course you can always use old rags, socks, etc. (aka you absolutely do not need to buy this, just sharing in case you want something "nicer"): amzn.to/3eYpRTt

There is a warning to be added here. Detaching and reattaching the cleaning solution will only work for a short while until the motor gets rusted and freezes. Each time you reattach the cleaning bottle, small needles poke through the rubber cover so that the solution can be pumped to the floor. However the second time you refill your container, new holes are punched. As a result, the motor will eventually freeze due to the solution running down into the mechanism. I've ruined two Swifters this way. A better solution would be to never remove the cleaning solution container and cut a hole in the top to refill it and tape it shut so it won't splash out. However you will always have to keep your mop upright forever and ever.

Because they make money off of the refills, not the mop itself. It's called the disposable razor strategy. You know how printers are super cheap but the ink is really expensive? It's the same thing. Make the main product cheap but the essential refills expensive to get your money back.

My squirter stopped working so I just filled up a spray bottle (again from Dollar Tree) with a mixture of water and white vinegar. I mop by having the mop in one hand and the spray bottle in the other, spraying the floor ahead of the mop. Works like a charm!

This was a great tip; thanks, Jenny :). I modified it a bit by just cutting off the locking rim. You can do this with a utility knife (just be careful) or any other means on or off the bottle. This will make the bottle refillable without having to do anything like this again. This will prevent the cap from warping due to multiple heatings (if needed), preventing leaks.

My daughter told me your trick how to boil the top and removed.. We also my husband anyway use an X-Acto knife to take out the little plastic blocking parts. I've use this for quite some time and haven't had any trouble with my Swiffer stopping to work. Funny story to add, we had a cousin who had a swiffer and she called me one day and said her swiffer stop working and it would've been difficult for her to buy a new one. So I said to her, did you change the batteries? And it was funny. She had no idea that it needed batteries! So I wonder if the person who originally threw out that Swiffer that you found maybe didn't know it took batteries either! As far as reusable pads, go, every time I use my swiffer, the pads are extremely filthy. So I don't think I would want to use a cloth swiffer pad replacement. I've actually been buying some swiffer type pads at a local grocery store. I should check I suppose what I pay for them. Probably I paid less than the brand name ones and probably more than the dollar store which is now the dollar and a quarter store. However sometimes you get less amount than you normally would at the $ store then if you paid a little bit more at another place

I’m not super frugal, but my (young) child walked though a missed spot of solution on the floor yesterday and despite whipping it off and a bath, this morning the bottoms of their feet were covered in mustard yellow splotches. It’s something we’ve encountered before with an unwashed pair of shoes our child had worn and whatever chemicals they use to prevent molding while in warehouses (probably formaldehyde). Anyways, I don’t want to use the solution anymore but didn’t want to go out and buy a whole new system. Obviously, I couldn’t get the lid off and went in search for a video that had some insight, which brought me here. I just heated a warm pot of water for a few minutes, turned off the burner stuck the bottle in the pot and left it there for a few minutes while I did other things, and the lid twisted off, no problem. Thank you this. It was a big help. P.s. if anyone else encounters the yellow spot thing on their kids feet, after washing, hydrogen peroxide and anti fungal cream. Works like a charm.

Thanks for the tip. I've used the Libman Freedome Spray mop which costs a little less that swiffer wetjet and uses a re-fillable reservoir and does NOT require batteries to spray cleaning fluid. My last one lasted five years before the spray mechanism broke down, but I consider a good value since it was used almost daily

My lid was impossible I gave up after several times and ended up drilling a hole in the top and using duct tape to seal lol. I guess I should have tried a few more times.

I have tried this so, so many times without any luck. It hurt my hand (I had surgery about a month or so ago. I finally put the water back in the microwave and when I saw it was boiling, I took it out & stuck the bottle in, let it sit for a bit and tried it. I could feel it move a bit which gave me the determination to keep twisting and it worked!! Now I'm going to try the smaller bottle. Ugh! I guess I'll stick with the bottle that opened for now. 😁😕😊

Thank you! This is great money saving information. I thought this thing was gonna be kind of expensive to operate you have to buy the refills and the pads and batteries now I can make my own cleaning solution use my own pads and well I’ll still have to buy batteries but that’s OK’ 😉

This is great thanks so much! I am recently separated n my husband had been cleaning for years bc I run a business n had an office nearby , so I’m trying to get Back in the swing of cleaning my own house n reorganized everything , then thinking where is my wet jet ? I found pads n cleaner no wet mop with them 😮 32.00 for the starter set now .. He used a commercial mop n giant wheeled bucket tub that with handles that squeezed string mop out … and idk why ? the house isn’t that big .. men seriously I’m not impressed I despise those mops , they’d freeze up north in winter and stick to the screen door so I’d miss the bus trying to escape that fire trap house ! 🤯 .. no handle , so I searched the garage n found a blue handed n it was my dusty old wet jet n couple more full bottles cleaner n few pads not working probly , no batteries … so I remembered I did charge several after holidays n yep they are the AA s I needed ! Then I Came on here to find out where the batteries even go ! so got that secret hatch open that now won’t close again , but the bottle holds it whatever.. then to the right I saw this vid n thinking what a great idea ! I I didn’t expect the reusable pad idea too yay 🎉 thank you so much ! ❤ So I got right on door dash n got the reusable pad at dollar store 8.00 , n that’s it ! My entire house is mopped n smelling fresh and ima refill the bottle with essential oils n witch hazel or whatever I can find works well … I have alot of those I sell them many years now .. grapefruit / lemon / citrus are nice for the method bottle I reuse ♻️.. I think they’d clean floors same ? Any homemade floor cleaner with EOs recipes let me know ! And now thank God 🙏there’s no giant bucket pail on wheels with ringer n big wet rope mop strings traumatizing the pup 🐶! N no moldy mop hanging around too long out Back looking n smelling worse than if the floors stayed un-mopped a year ! I’m so thankful for all the tips , it’s also saving the planet bc we’re not throwing all those bottles out after 1 use ! They really should Make a bag of cleaner that refills them somehow , why not ? So now it will cost next to nothing but the electric to charge the batteries until I find a solar recharger for them … the sun here in Florida is great for my fan n usb charger for phone n laptop n lights , so I’m sure I’ll find one n it’ll pay for itself in a month ! Anyone know a good solar charger for aa batteries ? Let me know 😊ty ❤️

I have an older swifter, and it only takes two batteries. I’ve had it for a long time, but I am going to use this hack. I don’t like buying the replaceable things of mopping fluid either. They are expensive.
