Summer Carpet Cleaning Tips

The summer can be considered the most active time of the year for a household. With kids back home for the summer, parties and get-together’s, there can be a lot of traffic making its way through the house. Here are some carpet cleaning tips for the summer rush!

1. Make a “No Shoes in the House” Rule – Becoming a “no shoes house” can prevent the accumulation of dirt and debris in the carpet fibers.
2. Put mats at all exterior doors – Keeping mats inside and out at each exterior door will help reduce the stress involved in cleaning muddy or soiled carpets. 
3. Treat spills immediately – The longer stains are left untreated, the more difficult they are to get out. Stains can become permanent over time so it’s important to treat them quickly.
4. Have your parties in the backyard – When throwing a cookout, pool party, or get-together, focus the fun on your backyard or outdoor space to keep people from stomping all over your carpet inside.
5. Vacuum often -Vacuuming helps reduce dust, dirt, residues and allergens which are embedded in the carpet. Overall, this can increase the longevity of your carpets by reducing wear & tear.
