Many things can happen to your carpet at home. The carpet can store a lot of dust, falling food and drink leftovers, flooding and so on. If for some reason your carpet is wet, either partially or completely, do not panic because you should immediately call http://northernbeachescarpetcleaning.com that will help to dry your carpet without any hassle. However, before the professional come you could try to dry the carpet immediately to prevent further damage.
You just need to take a dry cloth, place it on a wet carpet and also the bottom. Absorb as much water as possible with the cloth. If the weather is sunny, you could dry the carpet in the sun until it is completely dry. If the weather is not possible, open the window or turn on the fan by pointing at the carpet to speed up the drying process. If your house has air conditioning, set the air conditioner to the lowest temperature. After the carpet is dry, sprinkle baking soda over the entire surface, the more the better. Then, leave it overnight. Baking soda works to inhibit the growth of mold and mildew on wet or damp carpets. As you know, mold and mildew will certainly risk the health of you and your family if growth is not prevented on your carpet. Besides, their presence can also permanently damage the carpet. After a night, vacuum the carpet clean.
If you are late handling a wet carpet or do not dry it completely, then the musty odor and other unpleasant odors will come out of your carpet. However, don’t worry, you only need to re-sprinkle baking soda over the entire surface of the carpet, then leave it for several days. After that, vacuum until clean. Drying a wet carpet does require patience and accuracy because a few non-dry parts can potentially be a place for mold to grow that is harmful to health and shortens the life of the carpet. If you are among those who are too busy to do all the hard work, just use a professional carpet cleaning service from a trusted company. You also will have a carpet that looks like new again without having to bother.
