Top 3 bacteria lurking in our carpet



Top 3 bacteria lurking in our carpet


Campylobacter

Campylobacter is most commonly found in damp sofas, mattresses and carpets.  It can cause an illness infectious diarrhea, which can be dangerous to young children and old. Bacteria, like mold, thrives in moist environments, therefore houses that experienced flooding or leaking pipes may likely have a high level of Campylobacter in their carpets, mattresses and sofas.

Norovirus (Norwalk Virus)

Norovirus are able to survive 3 to 5 weeks on fabric fibers and can become airborne when agitated by movement. This virus causes the notorious gastric flu and other digestive illness.

 
Salmonella

Salmonella can cause food poisoning. In serious cases can cause typhoid fever which is fatal to the young and old. Salmonella is commonly linked to food but it is actually alarming to note that Salmonella is commonly found in household carpets. This is the reason why we should never eat food that falls on the floor.

Top 5 mistakes of carpet stain removal

Top 5 mistakes of carpet stain removal





1) Off the shelf spot removal will is safe on all carpets

Stain/spot removers available off the shelf may damage your household carpet/rug if not used properly. It is common to find chemical burns on carpets after a DIY stain/spot removal session. We advise users to test the stain/spot remover on a less noticeable area of the carpet before using it on the stain/spot



2) Use salt to absorb liquids/spills on carpet

Salt is a bad idea for absorbing unwanted liquids from carpets. Salt is very difficult to remove from the fibers of carpet. The ideal way to absorb unwanted liquids from carpets is white cloth, mild detergent and warm water. Just blot the spill and continue till it is gone.


3) Rubbing the spot/stain

DO NOT RUB any stain/spot on the carpet as it will further deepen the stain/spot making it harder to remove. Gently blot as per point 2 above.


4) Wool carpet will shrink when cleaned

It is not true that wool carpet cannot be cleaned as it will lead to shrinking. At Art of Cleaning (www.artofcleaning.com.sg), we are equipped with the proper machine and chemical to wash and remove stains from your wool carpet. Shrinkage will only happen if an incorrect cleaning method is used on your wool carpet.

5) Household stain removal products is as good as commercial products

Household stain removal products are completely different from the stain removal products that Art of Cleaning uses. We use professional stain removal chemicals which are highly efficient, protect the carpet fibers, enhance the carpet color and deep cleanse the carpet. By using household products, you risk damaging your precious/expensive carpet and upholstery.

Top 5 myths of about carpet maintenance cleaning


Top 5 myths of about carpet maintenance cleaning



1) Carpet cleaning chemicals are toxic


It is true that some carpet cleaning chemicals are toxic, there are equally if not more environmental friendly safe chemicals used in the carpet cleaning industry. In Art of Cleaning (www.artofcleaning.com.sg) we only uses chemicals that are child and pet safe. If parents of pet owners are still concerned, they can request for a 100% chemical free steam cleaning method.





2) Clean your carpets only if there are stains


Carpets are the dirtiest part of the household as it is kept on the floor. Dirt and dust are likely to be collected and settled onto the fibers of carpet. To prevent this, you should clean your carpet regularly regardless of any appearance of stain.




3) You should not clean your carpet early than scheduled


Dust is collected on the carpet on a daily basis. The more you clean your carpet, the longer your carpet will last you. As the saying goes, do not be penny wise and pound foolish.






4) Cleaning causes shrinkage of carpet


This is not true. If you use a professional carpet cleaner, they will be able to advise you on the appropriate drying method and time. Shrinkage usually occurs when carpets are not dry properly.






5) Vacuum cleaners are damaging to carpet

There is some truth in this but dirt and dust does more harm to your carpet. Therefore you are ‘prolonging’ the lifespan of your carpet instead of harming it by vacuuming it regularly.

  3. Use warm/hot water if the paint has dried up, you can add a small amount of detergent to the hot water to soften the paint.
  4. Use a small piece of metal like pin or needle to pick the softened paint out slowly to avoid damaging the carpet fibre. You can add more hot water and repeat this step many times.
  5. Try using a steam iron on the paint if step 4 doesn’t soften the dry paint.
  6. If all the above fail to remove the urine stain, you can consider seeking carpet cleaning professionals at 98860178 or email:sales@artofcleaning.com.sg.
