 For all types of floors and so do parquet, regular sweeping and mopping is best. Use brooms and brushes made with fine bristle and exploded heads. Keep in mind that water and wood don't mix, so keep the moisture on the floor to minimum. One thing you shouldn't do is damp-mop waxed parquet floors as excessive surface water can cause the finish to flatten, and may eventually penetrate and damage the wood.
Strong light, particularly direct sunlight can cause a chemical reaction in the floor's wood causing it to change colour (aging or weathering). Move rugs occasionally and use curtains or blinds to protect the floor from direct sunlight. Always protect your parquet floor when moving heavy objects. Use an old rug (wrong side up) and slide the object along the parquet floor on the rug.

I have a new puppy who is being house trained as we speak.
