Carpets sustain a significant amount of wear, tear and soil from normal use and foot traffic. Mold spores, pollen, fertilizers and pesticides are just a few of the unseen pollutants that are tracked into homes everyday. Frequent vacuuming, prompt clean up of spills and biannual or annual cleanings will not only improve appearance and indoor air quality, but will also help reduce excessive dirt accumulation, which leads to the premature wear of carpet fibers.
