How to Save and Succeed in Natural Way of Carpet Cleaning

Spots and stains on carpet can be a disaster for anyone that likes to keep a clean home. Unfortunately, treating carpet spots and stains isn't a perfect science. Depending on how long the stain or spot has been untreated and the pigment of your carpet's fibers, the treatment method may vary greatly.

When beginning this process it is important to know the difference between a spot and stain. Although it may seem unimportant, this is an important factor in determining the method of treatment. There are many methods out there to naturally treat a spot on carpet.

From chocolate, blood, pet feces, gum, mildew, nail polish, to sports drinks, every household will deal with spots and stains that will harm the overall quality of your carpet. But not all mishaps are created equal. To help you with this we have highlighted a few tips to help you determine between the two and know how to deal with each carpet blunder correctly—and know when it's time to bring in a carpet cleaning professional before it get worst.

The easiest way to identify a spot, as a general rule of thumb, is to see if you can "feel" where the carpet blunder occurred. This is the main difference between spots and stains. Often it is easier to apply a do-it-yourself treatment to restore your carpet (until your next professional cleaning) than it is to completely remove a stubborn stain.

It's simple, the longer you wait before cleaning up stains, the harder it is to remove! Always have the tools ready in a bucket or a toolbox so when the inevitable happens you won't be scrambling around looking for these items because its sitting there in a designated area ready for action. 

Sometimes there are stains that we might have overlooked that may have dried out. These always happens after parties or if your pet pees somewhere without you knowing. Don't worry, I've found some techniques around the internet that have been tried and tested for dried out stains

First, vacuum up the stain as much as you can. Second, blot damp towels saturated in water onto the stain to dilute the chemicals as much as possible. Finally, continue to blot until all the moisture has been absorbed. Never scrub back and forth when trying to remove a stain. This may worsen the problem and result in having to replace the carpet altogether, and always do your best to treat the stain as quickly as possible.

Depending on the stain, the treatment method may vary greatly. In fact, while some stains are relatively simple to remove yourself, others can be nearly impossible. It all depends on the chemical make-up of the food or drink that is spilled on your carpet. While some may be cleaned up with only water-based mix, some may require a more serious solution. Tea, sports drinks, ink, mustard, and bleach, are some of the worst stains.
