Cuban Woman in Florida Takes TikTok by Storm with Her Patio Cleaning: “Nothing Rots and the Pool Has Its Cleaner”

@aniadys_aaa never anticipated that a routine family cleaning day would make her a viral sensation. This Cuban living in Florida posted a TikTok video where she is seen cleaning her patio floor with water, soap, buckets, and brooms, just like it’s done in "every respectable Cuban household." However, what followed was a mix of suds and controversy.

The video has already surpassed 1.4 million views, showcasing how the foam, propelled by the splashes, ended up in the pool. For some, it was an exemplary act of cleanliness; for others, nearly a threat to pool maintenance. Comments flooded in: “Doesn’t chlorine explode when mixed with soap?”, “That floor looks dangerously slippery,” “Everything's going to rot.”

But Aniadys, unfazed, responded with her best weapon: naturalness and humor. “The tiles are porous, they’re not slippery at all,” she clarified. “And the outdoor cabinets are mounted on concrete, so water won’t harm them. Nothing rots,” she assured.

“And the pool?” some persisted. “That’s what the pool cleaner is for,” she replied, unfazed. In another video, she added, “The furniture is used to getting wet and nothing has happened to them. They’re patio furniture.”

The “soap drama” sparked divided opinions: while some worried about the filtration system’s health, others simply wanted to know where to buy tiles that “look like Versailles marble.” Many more just echoed a common sentiment: “How great it is to clean like this, with family, water, and a bit of drama!”

Amidst the critiques, there was also genuine support: “Throwing water is life itself,” “We Cubans clean like this,” “In my house, we even wash the walls.” One person even offered her a job: “If you like cleaning, come work for my company.”

Ultimately, beyond the wet floor, Aniadys’ story captures that quintessential Cuban blend of pride in cleanliness, passion for a beautiful home, and a hearty dose of “I don’t care what they say.”
