Carpets
may give a home a warm and inviting feel, but they require extra care to keep
them clean and fresh. Even if a carpet looks clean, it may still be be
harboring bacteria, dust, and pet dander. Over time these substances
accumulate, making your carpet not only dingy looking but a health hazard as
well.
There
are many benefits to carpet cleaning. Better yet, hire a carpet cleaning
business, to save you the time and hassle of doing it yourself.
The
number one reason to have your carpets regularly cleaned is for the health of
your family. Dirty carpets can accumulate allergens over time, which can wreck
havoc with the allergy sufferer in your family. Pet dander, hair, and fur can
become embedded, as well as house dust. These allergens combine and cannot only
cause sniffling and sneezing, but asthma attacks too.
Most
of the household vacuums don’t completely remove these substances. Water and
cleaning solutions, along with a powerful commercial vacuum, are required to
pull out these microscopic particles and suck them away. Regularly cleaning
your carpet will keep allergens under control so the allergy sufferer can
breathe easier. You’ll also prevent people from developing allergies by keeping
your carpets clean and fresh.
If
you have pets or small children that crawl around on the ground, you can be
exposing them to harmful bacteria. In fact, almost no one would want to eat off
of the carpet. These microorganisms can come from pet poop, food crumbs, and
soil and leaves carried in from outside. Cleaning solutions will neutralize and
destroy harmful microorganisms, making your carpet more sanitary.
Professional
carpet cleaning can also remove embarrassing stains. Unless you have pure black
carpet, no matter what you spill, it’s going to leave a stain. You may do your
best to mop up a spill, or try to use one of those store-bought spray carpet
cleansers, but often red wine, blood, pet accidents, and tomato sauce don’t
come out too easily. A good carpet cleaning will remove these stains, leaving
your carpet looking brand new.
Carpet
cleaning can also revitalize an old carpet. Over time, the threads will wilt
and become stuck together. Your carpet may look worn, even when it’s not. A
good carpet cleaning will fluff up your carpet. The action of the hot steam
will raise the fibers and return them to a natural upright position. It’s an
affordable way of making the floors look new, without buying new floor coverings.
There’s
nothing like a freshly cleaned carpet. Once it’s dried, it’ll look inviting
enough to sit down on. You’ll wonder why you don’t have your carpet cleaned
more often, since there are so many benefits to having a clean carpet.
There’s
also great satisfaction from having your carpets cleaned. Many people leave
this chore at the bottom of the list, but it should really be at the top.
Because once the carpet is cleaned, your home will automatically smell and look
clean and fresh.
