Do you want to put a good carpet cleaning program into place? The first step is to take a good look at the equipment you use to clean your carpets. Your vacuum cleaner is your first line of defense and, if it isn't very powerful, you should replace it with a higher quality model. There are top of the line vacuum cleaners that can cost upwards of one thousand dollars - or more - such as those made by Kirby. Most of us don't want to spend that much, and don't really need to. There are many really good, powerful vacuum cleaners at much better prices. The first important step, before you shampoo your carpets, is to vacuum them thoroughly. This is true regardless of the type of carpets in your home. This is fundamental carpet care if you want to take the best care of your carpets. When you don't vacuum thoroughly before you shampoo, your carpet can look worse when you are through than before you started. This is a problem because of the way rug shampooers do their job when you run them over your carpets. A portion of the dirt will dissolve when it comes into contact with the water, and part of this dirt will be removed by the shampoo. But you will not get all of it, and the dissolved dirt will dry even more deeply into your carpet. One of the dangers of shampooing your own carpeting is failing to remove as much liquid from the carpeting as possible. We have seen massive growth of black mold in apartments due to wet carpeting. Not only does this mold ruin your carpet, but it's bad for your health as well. Not only will it grow in your rug, it can spread to your walls and will be almost impossible to get rid of. The only way to really kill it is to wash the walls with bleach After killing the mold, you will have to paint your walls, an additional expense that wasn't necessary. If you have pets such as cats or dogs, then of course you want to ensure they are taken care of in all ways. That is something you have to think about if you want to clean your carpeting. It's not easy to find commercial carpet shampoos that don't contain chemicals that could cause health problems for your pets. You may see rug shampoos at the store that say they are "pet safe", but don't always believe what you read. Maybe they are safe, and your pets won't have any ill effects if you use them. You need to check out the products and make the decision yourself. A carpet cleaning method that is totally safe for use around pets, or sensitive individuals, is steam cleaning. There are millions of pet owners in the US and around the world, and keeping the carpet clean can be a challenge sometimes. The best way to ensure your health, and that of your pets, is to vacuum your carpets on a regular basis. Your carpet will, naturally, benefit also. Pets are a lot closer to carpets, physically, than humans. They shed dander, and it's unhealthy for them to breathe in this stuff that settles into a carpet.
