Cleaner Carpets for Health Reasons
- 1. Cleaner Carpets for Health Reasons If you could see the amount of minute creepy crawlies that inhabit your carpets, you would probably never want to walk on them again. Normally speaking, these do not really seem to have any impact on your health but they can be responsible for allergies, etc. Dust mites are the worst culprits when it comes to allergens but there can be more serious problems in the form of mould and such. Whether you want to combat allergies or you want to stop something a little more dangerous, keeping the carpets clean is the best way to combat them. Vacuum Regularly According to most carpet cleaners Brisbane, if you suffer from allergies, you need to vacuum at least once daily – carpets team with little bugs, and these are brought in daily. Do not give them a chance to multiply. If allergies are not your worry, you can get away with vacuuming less often but not less than once a week. For higher traffic areas, every second or third day is advisable. Cleaning the Carpets Carpets should be cleaned about once a month or so. This means getting in a professional service once a month or doing it yourself. The advantage of a professional service is that they will be able to do the job more thoroughly and in less time than it would take you. They also have machines that suck up more of the moisture and so the carpets dry more quickly. If you do shampoo the carpets yourself, be sure to follow the manufacturer’s recommendations in order to avoid damaging the carpet. A Professional Steam Clean At least once or twice a year, you need to have your carpets professionally steam cleaned. Not only will that kill off any lingering bugs, it will also help to get rid of any stamped in dirt and grime, effectively destroying the environment that these bugs prefer. Steam cleaning, if done incorrectly, can seriously damage your carpet so it should be left to professional Brisbane carpet cleaning professionals. Proper steam cleaning will refresh your carpets and extend their useful life span. Prevention is better than Cure
- 2. Of course, in all of this; prevention is a lot better than cure. Wherever possible, keep muddy feet, paws, etc. outside, even if it means that shoes must be taken off at the door. Also make sure to close the doors when the weather is very windy in order to prevent dust getting into the home. Should there be any mud that has been tracked into the house, clean immediately before it gets ground into the carpet. http://www.andersens-carpetcleaning.com.au
