Cleaning the carpet

Cleaning in the house, though quite tiring, but a must. Many people had problems with carpet. If you do not deal with it regularly, you will have to look for strong chemical reagents or carry out professional cleaning. It is better not to allow heavy contamination, and periodically clean using simple and reliable methods.

How to properly clean the carpet?

There are several basic ways to clean carpets. We list some of them:

1. Wet cleaning with a brush. Soft bristles should not damage the coating. On all modern tools, a detailed instruction is written. Be sure that they do not cause allergies. Also, do not mix several types of chemicals together - this can cause an undesirable reaction. Carpets on an adhesive basis do not really like wet cleaning. Coatings on a natural basis can be deformed from excess fluid. It is necessary to squeeze the cloth well to remove excess water.
2. Cleaning the carpet with a vacuum cleaner . Such appliances are increasingly bought by our housewives, appreciating all their advantages over the old devices. In water special means are dissolved and with the help of a special brush are rubbed into the coating. Then the vacuum cleaner removes all the dirt accumulated in the surface. You just need to give time (6-12 hours), so that the carpet is dry.
3. Dry cleaning. It is produced with the help of a washing powder, which is rubbed into our carpet. Be sure to pre-vacuum your carpet before this. The agent should remain on the surface for a while (0.5-2 hours) to soak up dirt. The advantage of this method is that there is no need to dry your coating, and after cleaning it can be walked immediately.
4. How to clean the carpet with Vanish or some other similar product that forms a foam:

• pre-vacuum, or knock out your carpet , otherwise you will have a divorce from the remaining dust;
• one part of the drug is diluted in nine parts of clean water;
• beat the resulting solution until a thick foam;
• apply a brush (you can use a sponge) evenly to foam on the surface, excessive moistening here is also not desirable;
• rub foam in circular motions, if there are old stains, then before starting work, add a little shampoo on the cap;
• Leave your carpet dry for a couple of hours, walking on it during this period is undesirable;
• in the end, once again, vacuum it to remove the remnants of the shampoo.
