Carpet Cleaning Can Improve Health

Carpets add beauty to the value of your home since they are available in an array of styles and colors. However, carpets can also be a haven for all sorts of filth. Therefore, it is extremely important for those who have carpets to get them cleaned regularly, not only to extend the life of the carpet, but also the health of the home’s occupants from several factors.

• Dust - Dust collects on everything. What many people don’t know is that some dust is composed of residue from microscopic creatures called dust mites. These microscopic creatures thrive in warm environments and feed off dead skin cells. They reside in bedding, upholstery and carpets.
  
• Fungi - Houses collect moisture, which are breeding grounds for fungi such as mold and mildew. Though these fungi typically start out in rooms such as the bathrooms and kitchens where moisture collects more readily, they can migrate into other rooms and settle into carpets.
  
• Pollutants - In addition to dust and fungi, other carpet pollutants can get trapped in carpets. Outdoor dirt with oil and other elements can be tracked in and get imbedded in the carpet.

Getting a carpet cleaned regularly can eliminate irritants that get trapped in carpet and not removed by vacuum or worse, activated by vacuum. For more on professional carpet cleaning, call Carpet Cleaning Supply of Indiana at 317-842-7454.
