For those who don’t care about wearing shoes in the house, tell us what you mop with, please. I’d love to know if you’re mopping to kill germs or if you’re just mopping to smell good and spread the germs all around your floors.

I have house shoes that I immediately put on when I walk in. Hoka slides. Much more comfortable and easy to put on and off.

I had a family of pajeets in my old hood. They would all take their nasty sandals off before they walked in their home. Their feet were probably dirtier than the sandals.

You will see a noticeable difference when you mop the house and look at the bottom of the pad for either way.


Correct, but it's still disgusting as frick either way. This is why I have house shoes that I switch to. Between pets and everything else the average house floors are dirty. I'm not walking around in socks and getting all that shite caked on, then putting that inside my shoe.
If you're a shoes off house when you have guests, I avoid going as much as possible to your house.

My momma raised us shoes off because she kept a clean house.

1. Who wouldn’t want clean floors? Especially if you have babies crawling on them.

2. Why would you want or need shoes on in the house anyway?

Sometimes I take them off, sometimes I don't. I do what I want.

We take our shoes off but would never tell guests to do that.

Just think of all the bacteria that lives in your mouth, on your skin and the unfathomable wasteland of microbiology that call your GI tract home…no matter how many bubble baths you take per day that satisfy the neuroses of your germ centric mind, these microbes are still there. Always! Cannot escape them.

I like to tease me wife with these realities whenever she goes germophobe.

We aren’t neurotic about it (if I realize I forgot something after my shoes are on, I’m not taking them back off to go grab it), and we don’t ask guests to take off their shoes, but yes, we are generally shoes off. Unless you’re the type of person who would willingly walk barefoot everywhere, it’s hard to “unsee” that it’s a little gross to track all of that back into the house, to then walk around barefoot later.

Shoes off when entering house, that’s the way I was raised and now transferred over to my home and raised my kids that way. Hopefully they do the same when they have family of their own.

if I'm a guest at someone's place and they ask me to take my shoes off I do.

If not, then I don't think about it.

for my own place, I take them off when I get home from work.

I wear shoes on my feet.

We have these things called rugs and mats to clean off your shoes before going into the house.

We did the shoes off thing when we had bought a fairly new house with some really beautiful wood flooring. We had white tile in the kitchen. After a few years the newness wore off and we had a couple more kids. Didn’t continue with the shoes off deal….oh well….

A few weeks ago, my daughter & SIL were looking around at various homes for sale north of Dallas. At the front door of one house, they were greeted by realtor and told that the homeowner required shoes to be removed before entering. My SIL said he told the realtor “Ok, we have seen enough” and he and daughter turned and walked away.
