Contemplate this subject for a moment…in what vicinity of your house is there more bacteria...your toilet seat or your carpet? Would you believe that the answer is - your carpet!? Studies show the average homeowners' carpet contains about 200,000 bacteria in every square inch, about 4,000 times as much as their toilet seat. Doesn’t that make you want to walk around with your socks on? From where does all this bacteria come? Skin cells, food and drink particles, pollen, chemicals, fertilizers, pesticides, exhaust and all kinds of other pollutants all bring in bacteria that live in your carpeting. It comes in from your shoes, your clothes, your skin, your hair, even the air. That's why frequently scheduled carpet cleaning is important. If you linger until your carpet looks soiled to get it cleaned, you’ve already been co-existing with and breathing in these dangerous substances in your carpet. Carpet cleaning doesn't just mean removing the grime and spots on the outside, but it means removing the germs and bacteria underneath the surface. Sorry to say, most vacuums and the vast majority of hardware store rental or retail carpet cleaning machines don't have the suction power, high temperatures, or water pressure to eliminate a great deal of this bacteria. The “one size fits all” cleaning solutions sold to the general homeowner don’t have the effectiveness as those made especially for the cleaning industry. A good carpet cleaner has an assortment of cleaners to use in a variety of situations. A good carpet cleaner has also had training to use these cleaners correctly. Overdoing or using the incorrect type of cleaning solutions in your carpets can lead to problems. Not every carpet cleaner in your town can do this if he isn't using the correct cleaners, methods, tools, or doesn't have an adequate amount of correct training. That’s why it’s essential to find a company that uses qualified, skillful, IICRC Certified technicians like our carpet cleaning Bradenton service for a deep steam clean at least once every twelve months. What can you do to keep your carpets fresh in the meantime? To reduce the amount of bacteria in your carpet, remove shoes worn outside once you come into your home. Use rugs you can machine wash in high-traffic areas. Take into account, though, this won't completely do away with these pollutants, they still come in from your skin, hair, socks, and clothes. But it will reduce them and help keep your home and air cleaner. In addition, vacuum at least once per week, more if you have children or pets playing on your carpet. A major yet often ignored key to staying healthy is by keeping clean. A sanitary home and fresh carpets make for clean air and a family in good health.
