dd is correct...with poly seal you should not need to be doing more than light mopping and dusting. I would never put oil on my hardwood floors!!! When I was in school, our old blding had wood floors and the janitor kept them oiled --but this was in those days when there was no finish on the floors and it was the way to clean up the dust. I remember sometimes you could almost ''skate'' on them.
