Default gaps between the wooden floorboards

I live in a victorian house and am wanting to strip back the wooden floor.
The only problem is that there are small gaps between all the floorboards.
What can I do I have seen in some magazines there they put some white
sealant between the boards.


What can I do?


Any advice would be great.


Many thanks.We've used clear silicone sealant on one floor and its been fine for years, just

need to trim it off flush when its set.

Looks like the gaps are still there but with no wind rushin through!..........

Another option is http://www.stopg-p.co.uk/index.html Relatively
expensive compared to sealant but worked for us in previous place, it
sits in the gaps below floor level resting on timbersso floor still
ooks natural but prevents the wind. it does however act as a store for
dust and dirt but hoovering sorts it out easily
