According to the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency), dirty carpeting has the ability to retain a multitude of sources of interior air pollutants, which include cockroach allergens, pet dander, particle pollution, lead, and day-to-day dust and dirt. Toxic airborne gases may stick to those particles and additionally become trapped inside the carpet. Those toxic gases may be released through daily activities like walking across the carpet and vacuuming, which may cause them to contaminate the air inside your residence. Expert carpet cleaning services will kill those bacteria through unique shampooing formulas and may extract deeply trapped pollutants using high-powered vacuums.
Cleaning the carpets may clear dust mite infestations out
Dust mites themselves are not allergens; however, they oftentimes leave behind body fragments and feces which are. Due to the microscopic size of those particles, they easily can be inhaled as the space is disturbed, which may exacerbate allergies. Most professional carpet cleaning businesses use a method referred to as steam cleaning while conducting carpet maintenance work that exposes the carpet to high temperatures which dust mites cannot survive.
