Keeping your bamboo floors clean and maintained is not too different from taking care of other types of flooring, although there are a couple of differences, see below:

Don’t forget to use mats at doorways as this will remind people to wipe their feet off before entering or take their shoes off before stepping into the floor surface. Definitely no high heels as the pressure will mark your floors.
Protection in high traffic areas

You can only minimize the accumulation of dirt and dust as you cannot prevent it from entering your home totally. Your best weapon is to frequently get rid of this dirt by regular sweeping. When mopping your bamboo floors, be sure to check that the mop is not too wet. Remember, bamboo floors cannot handle large amounts of moisture.
