Here's an odd question for you. How often do you replace your mops and brooms? I replace my mop once or twice a year. It have a detachable, machine washable head so I detach and wash with detergent and I wash my floors. I have had the same brooms for about 2 yrs. I clean them in detergent every now and again but I think it's time to get new mops and brooms. How often do ou replace yours?

Broom is replaced when the bristles start to fall out or it gets so feathery it proves useless - then it usually ends up out on outside duty and I get a new one for inside so about this time of year and old broom goes to the porch for sweeping off the dustings of snow.

Mop the same as I also have the machine washable heads. When they start to get ragged or even with washing they come out hard or smelly.
