Carpet Cleaning Tips Sure, hardwood floors are easy to maintain but on a cold, wintery day, nothing beats the warmth and comfort of a thick, pile carpet. That is, until you have to clean it.

If your world includes people with tiny feet, and even if it doesn’t, maintaining a carpet to a high standard of cleanliness and attractiveness isn’t always easy. There are, thank goodness, some easy ways to clean your carpets that won’t break the bank or have you inhaling toxic fumes.

Dealing with spills

The key to dealing with spills is to deal with them as quickly as possible. Of course, you don’t want to be getting out the steam cleaner in the middle of your party but you can pre-treat any spills to avoid a stain setting in, that will make delayed clean up all the more difficult this work with carpets, central Rugs, Upholstery, sectional sofa.

For any wet spills, soak up as much of the excess as possible. And then look at what it is that was spilled to decide what your next more is:

  • Sugar based spills (juice, for example): Blot the stain to pull up excess moisture, spray the area with warm (not hot) water and use a cloth to blot again. The key is not to rub, which can help set the stain, but literally blot by putting pressure on the cloth and then lifting and repeating. Finally, place a clean towel over the area and put something heavy on it for a couple of hours: this will help soak up the remaining water and juice.
  • Dairy spills: Mix a cup of warm water with half a tablespoon of dish detergent and use a clean cloth, dipped in this mixture, to blot the milk stain until it has disappeared.
  • Wine spills: You can use the same method as for milk, or replace the dish detergent with vinegar for a tougher spill (that Pinot Noir isn’t going to give up easily!) You can also blot up the excess and then pour cold water on the stain, to dilute it without setting it and continue to blot. If some stain remains after the cold water rinse, you can add baking soda, mixed with water (3:1 ratio), to the area. Once it is dry, vacuum it up and you should be good to go!
