Just like caring for any type of hardwood flooring, there are a few things to keep in mind when it comes to bamboo flooring.  High quality bamboo flooring requires regular maintenance so it stays looking fresh and beautiful.

You should sweep bamboo flooring each day.  One important piece of bamboo flooring information is to never wax this type of flooring.  You will need to use a damp mop only when the time comes for you to deep clean the floor.  You never want to add water directly on the flooring.

Bamboo floors are not recommended in climates with high humidity.  If you decide you just must have bamboo floors and you live in a high humidity area, you will need to keep your home at a cool temperature during the hot months.  It is also recommended that you do not have direct sunlight in the area of the bamboo.  Direct sunlight will not only discolor the bamboo but will soften it as well.

While bamboo floors are durable, they are not indestructible.  Never walk on your bamboo with high heels on.  The pressure from the heels can do great damage to bamboo flooring.
