The first thing you should do is arm yourself with a soft brush and fine salt.

If the mat is small, two or three tablespoons of salt will be enough.

If the product is large enough, you will need six tablespoons.

Sprinkle salt on the carpet and leave for 20 minutes. It is advisable to sprinkle it evenly.

During this time, it will absorb dirt and unpleasant odors. Afterwards, it is enough to simply sweep it with a broom or vacuum it.

How else to clean a carpet

A product containing ammonia and washing powder effectively removes dirt from carpets.

In a liter of warm water, pour a third of a glass of washing powder. Then add a tablespoon of ammonia and mix well.

Using a brush, apply the product to the carpet and leave for half an hour. Then wipe the product with a damp cloth.

It is important to remember that ammonia has a strong smell. Therefore, the room where the carpet is located should be thoroughly ventilated.
