Hello World! Welcome Friends! Ever walked into a home with a dirty, smelly carpet? The foul odor that greets you is enough to make you sick in your stomach. A clean carpet can be refreshing and give your home that squeaky clean allure and valuable appeal. So, if you’re still wondering if it’s necessary to clean your carpet? This post will reveal to you why it’s not just necessary but also obligatory to regularly maintain a clean carpet at home.
Toddlers and Kids’ Sanitary Safety
If you are a nursing parent, you should already know that toddlers learn and love to crawl on the floor and carpets. Now, what do you think would happen if the carpet is not clean? Yes! Your guess is as good as mine. Carpets trap all kinds of dirt, dust mites, food particles, and lots more. These germs can be ingested by your toddler either through inhalation or from hand to mouth, as babies are fond of putting their hands in their mouths.
Younger kids are also prone to getting these germs into their body by picking up dropped snacks or candies from the carpet. As tiny as they may seem, these germs can cause fatal health challenges for kids especially because their immune system isn’t as strong as that of an adult. So, if you love your kids, please clean your carpet frequently.
Sparkly Dazzling
Have you ever walked into a home and felt like floating in the air because you felt stepping on the carpet might soil it? Well, I’ve been there too, so don’t be embarrassed. Here’s a little story, a friend once invited me for a sleepover. This friend has OCD, and you know what that means. Every nook and cranny of the apartment was spotless but the most noticeable was the “white carpet”. You could tell that this person takes the sanitary game seriously.
Back to the topic, if you want to have that sparkly dazzling look in your home, you need to invest in cleaning your carpet, not just vacuuming but also professional cleaning. I know there are days when you accidentally spill coffee or wine on the carpet, but if it’s not wiped out immediately, it leaves semi-permanent stains on your carpet. Over time, this can cause smells too. You can’t have that sparkly dazzling apartment with a stained carpet. Nope! So go get that carpet cleaned up.
Refreshed Air
Do you spend a lot of money on air fresheners, odor control substances, and scented humidifiers to always have that fresh smell in your home, but then you get back from work only to be welcomed by a foul smell? Oops! Here’s the deal. When last did you air-dry your carpet? You can’t remember or never have. Especially during summer, it’s important to clean and sun-dry your carpet, but why is this important?
Washing your carpet helps remove all the residual germs, dirt, and buildup your vacuum cleaner couldn’t take out. The pressure of the water forces the dirt out, and further sun-drying the carpet also allows it to dry slowly but neatly leaving a fresh smell. Here’s a little tip; after sun-drying your carpet, leave little drops of essential oils like lavender, rose, or any of your favorite fragrances on the carpet. You’ll switch from a discomforting smell to a welcoming fragrance in your home.
Wipe Out the Allergens
Did you just sneeze? Oh, dear! You are allergic to your grandma’s pet. If you have pets in the house, you should consider cleaning your carpet more frequently than those who don’t have pets. Pets like cats, dogs, guinea pigs, etc., shed their fur all over the place and this gets trapped in the couch and carpet. If you are allergic or have someone who is living with you, cleaning your carpet is a paramount necessity. If you, you are looking for more natural cleaning options there are options but you have to search for them specifically. We spoke to Maui Carpet Cleaning company owner Nathan and he said they use citrus and plant-based products instead of harmful toxic chemicals
Final Words…
Carpet cleaning can be tedious and can take days to completely dry, to be honest. However, there are professional cleaning agents that handle carpet cleaning and you’re sure to get it the same day because these companies have the technical equipment to dry the carpet super-fast. So, if you’re too busy or can’t handle it yourself, do well to consult these agencies. Still not sure about getting a professional carpet cleaning company. Check out this list.

I never realized how nasty carpet gets until they pull it up. Ours was gross even after steam cleaning frequently. Now I have vinyl plank and love it.

You’re so right about the reasons for carpet cleaning. Even with regular vacuuming, carpets collect allergens and dirt. Thank you for sharing this post in the Talent-Sharing Tuesdays Link-Up 60.
