Top Carpet Cleaning Tips
2

• No matter how clean you try to keep your home,
  its inevitable that your carpets will retain a
  degree of dirt from spillages and general
  detritus, and a stained carpet can really make a
  room look grubby. However, there are several
  techniques and products that when used in the
  correct way, can help to eliminate dirt and grime
  and get your carpets back to brand new condition,
  quickly
• Blot, dont rub
• Dabbing at a stain with whatever cleaning
  solution youre using is the best way to avoid
  damaging the carpet fibres and spreading the
  stain. Blot the offending stain with minimal
  pressure and watch it soak up in no time.

• Soda on a cloth
• Club soda can work wonders on a vast array of
  stains, and again, blotting is key. Soak a cloth
  with soda (or if that doesnt work, with a one
  part white vinegar to one part water solution),
  and blot the stain thoroughly. Leave it wet for a
  few minutes, then firmly press a clean sponge
  onto the affected area. If this doesnt work the
  first time, the process can be repeated until the
  desired effect is achieved.

• After removing a stain
• Its important to rinse any stained area of your
  carpet that youve recently treated, with warm
  water and a sponge or cloth. You can also
  encourage the carpet fibres to sit correctly by
  using your hand to brush them in the right
  direction, before placing paper towels over the
  area weighted down with something heavy. You may
  find that some carpet stains that youve treated
  will take a long to dry, depending on the weather
  or the heat in that room.

5

• Chewing gum
• Chewing gum on your best shag pile is a
  nightmare, but there is a really simple way of
  getting it off without ruining your carpet. Put
  some ice cubes or a freezer pack directly onto
  the gum and leave it there for around a minute.
  This will freeze the gum and should enable you to
  simply scrape it off with a spoon. You may need
  to cut a few fibres where the gum has stuck
  firmly to the carpet, but if you take care when
  doing this, it shouldnt notice afterwards.

6

• Dishwash detergent
• If youve somehow gotten grease onto your best
  carpet, then a drop or two of a good quality
  dishwashing detergent mixed with a cup of water,
  should eliminate the stain. Put the solution into
  a spray dispenser and use it liberally on the
  affected area, before blotting it up and
  repeating the process if necessary.
• Carpets are an important feature of any home, and
  its recommended that you steam clean them
  thoroughly every few months to help keep them
  looking vibrant and healthy.
