Carpets in an apartment are not only real dust collectors, but also objects that instantly accumulate dirt.
However, it is not possible to constantly clean them at a professional dry cleaner or beat them out on the street, as it takes a lot of time.
Let's figure out how to actually clean carpets at home.
The basis of carpet care is vacuum cleaning. Moreover, experts recommend vacuuming at least every other day. This rule especially applies to those carpets that are in living rooms.
It is always better to spot clean the carpet rather than drag it outside to beat it out. For this purpose, any stain that appears on it is recommended to wash it immediately, before it dries.
In this case, it is recommended to use special cleaning products for carpets, since universal household chemicals may be too aggressive for it.
It is better to blot any liquids with a paper towel: this will prevent the stain from spreading further.
Rubbing stains with a brush is also not recommended. It is better to use a sponge and carefully remove the remaining cleaning agent.
