...how do you clean them?

I've been told you could use just plain old hot water or I've also been told you can put a dab of vinegar in the water, but then my house smells like a douche so I usually just go with super hot water.

And what/how do you clean the grout (sp?). We paid the first few years we lived here to have our floors cleaned but I am probably going to tackle it on my own soon. My neighbor suggested one of those bleach pens but wouldn't that eat the grout?

Last year @ this time I and my Husband cleaned our tile/Grout.

We use - bleach water - toothbrush - & rags

Vinegar would do a great job also.

Why don't you try warm vinegar water - toothbrush.

I'd wait on the bleach depending on your grout color.

It's a tough job - just do a section at a time.. our floor is filthy..:wah:

Good luck

I use bleach, does a great job on getting dirt out of the grout.
