Carpet Cleaning Tips

Carpet cleaning is a task that every carpet owner has to perform sooner or later. Given their special function, carpets get dirty easily which compromises their beauty and potentially turns them into breeding grounds for microbes and germs. Hence, it is essential to keep carpets clean at all times while also trying to preserve their original beauty. Considering all the stains, dirt, footprints, soot and moisture that carpets encounter on a regular basis, they need to be cleaned frequently.

The task of cleaning your carpets might seem like a challenging one, but with the right tools and approach, it can be done very easily. A vacuum cleaner will not suffice for removing all categories of stains and dirt from the carpet. In such instances, there are numerous effective techniques for getting rid of stubborn stains from your carpet.

Here are a few helpful tips to help clean and maintain your carpets. (a) One of the easiest ways to clean carpets is to shake off loose dirt on the carpet outdoors using a carpet beater. Besides cleaning the carpet, it also dislodges any eggs of moths and carpet beetles from it.

(b) Be sure to vacuum the carpet at least once a week. Regular vacuuming prevents the build-up of coarse particles which may ultimately damage the fibre of the carpet through friction by friction. Before vacuuming, divide the room into quadrants and work on each one in turn so that you do not miss any spot.

To prevent any odours while vacuuming the carpet, you could sprinkle some baking soda on the carpet, leave it for a few hours and then suck it up into the vacuum cleaner’s dust bag.

(c) Cleaning carpets with a combination of baking soda and vinegar is very effective in dislodging all types of carpet stains. First, sprinkle some quantity of baking soda on the stained spot and then pour a little quantity of vinegar afterwards. Then, let the mixture act for a while and proceed to dab it with a cloth and leave it to dry.

(d) Another useful tip is to clean the carpets with a mixture of salt and vinegar. These components, when mixed together, form a kind of paste that can be applied to carpet stains to remove them. After application, allow it to act on the spot and then wipe it clean with a damp cloth

(e) Dents left behind by heavy furniture could be addressed with the aid of a steam iron. However, adequate care must be taken to avoid burning or melting the fibers. If part of the carpet gets burned, you can easily cut it out and replace it with a new piece. You can use a special tape to hold the new piece in place.
