How to clean foam play mat?
How in the world am I supposed to clean this thing and keep it clean? I wipe it down at night and first thing in the morning there's already hairs and lint all over it. It's impossible!

If it's hair and lint, you can use a dry swiffer to catch all that.

That's what I've been doing and it helps, but it never serms really clean for long

Don't mean to be rude, but is the room kept clean? dust and wash the floors, take all the mats whipe them down and put them down on clean floors.
I vacuum them every night, once a week, I wipe them down with water and vinegar solution.

I don't clean the floors every night, but they're kept pretty clean. The problem is that I'm on the mat all day playing with my DD and I shed hair like crazy and then it sticks to the mat like a magnet. I've been using a vinegar and water solution and the swiffer, but the hairs still stick!

Oh so its more a hair shed problem  my hair is dark and thick it shows up everywhere. But hairdresser told me to brush hair before shampoo and then shampoo very rigorous, really massage sclap, get all the loose hairs to come out then. It helped tons.

My hair sheds like crazy too. I just vacuum the mat first (w/a floor attachment) and then wipe down.
