FixIt Files: Deep Cleaning Carpets – Happy Nose & Happy Toes



Carpets and rugs add warmth, comfort, and style, but they also trap dirt, allergens, and dust mites (yuck!). Between pets, spills, and everyday foot traffic rugs take a beating. A deep clean isn’t just for looks; it keeps your home fresh, your air cleaner, and your floors feeling brand new.

Here are a few quick & easy tips that will give you fresh, fluffy, and foot-friendly carpets.

Vacuum first – Get rid of surface dirt before going deep. Bonus points for using a HEPA filter!

Tackle stains ASAP – Blot (don’t rub!) with a mix of warm water and mild soap. Vinegar + baking soda works wonders too!

Use a carpet cleaner – A steam cleaner or hot water extractor pulls out deep grime. Rent one if needed!

Dry it fast – Open windows, crank a fan, or use a dehumidifier to prevent musty smells.

Call the pros – For tough stains or high-traffic areas, a pro clean once or twice a year keeps things looking fresh.

Bonus Tip: Give area rugs a sunbath outside—it helps kill bacteria naturally!

Your carpets, your toes, and your nose will thank you. Now go enjoy that fresh, clean home!
