All Natural Wood Floor Cleaner
I'm looking for a non-toxic, eco-friendly wood floor cleaner. Preferably without too strong of a scent. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

I used vinegar and warm water on mine. It's cheap, easy, and works better than anything else I've tried.
YMMV

Murphy oil soap. It's 98% natural or something like that.

We use Bona, and it's eco-friendly. We got ours from Lowes in a kit with a mop. It's awesome and has very little noticeable scent.

If you have sealed floors. You are cleaning the finish not the wood.
Think of it as cleaning a mirror, you wouldn't clean a mirror or window with an oil based product because it will just make it cloudy. That's what murphy oil's soap and other oil based cleaners.
The best method is a damp mop using a mixture of water and vinegar. The mop shouldn't be dripping wet. After it drys you can go over with an dry micro fiber cloth mop to buff to a shine.
