A Tip a Day -Emergency Fix for Loose Mop Handle

Emergency Fix for Loose Mop Handle — “Rubber Bands + Paper Towel” for Temporary Relief

Problem: 

Loose connection at the mop handle joint causes wobbling during mopping, preventing firm pressure.

Solution:

Take 2 thick rubber bands and wrap them around the loose joint, leaving 1cm spacing between each loop to increase friction.

If the gap remains large, fold a paper towel in half and stuff it into the joint before wrapping with rubber bands. This instantly stabilizes the handle for emergency use lasting 1-2 weeks.

Tip: 

For persistent looseness, replace the connector (purchase matching replacement parts online). Temporary reinforcement is only for urgent situations to prevent handle detachment during mopping.
