Use a hair dryer and just warm the wax gently. Be careful to not scorch the wood or the finish. As it melts,use a clean disposable cloth to wipe away the melted wax.
Steam Cleaner - a highly versatile cleaning tool that'll shift practically anything.

Try using a plastic spatula that has rounded corners. Make sure it's hard plastic and not rubber. Scrape the wax off gently. Also you may try putting some heat on it to soften it. Not with a hair dryer but maybe a hot damp cloth. Good luck!
i know water is not good for hardwood floors but you will wipe this up before it can do any damage try getting an ice cube and rubbing it on the wax for a few seconds this will make it very brittle then immediately get a plastic (only) spatule and try scraping off the floor while it is very brittle. Also you can try a warm compress set a heating pad covered with plastic so the wax doesn't get on it and some mineral oil on a spatula to loosed it from the floor. brittle always works better for me though
