Carpet Care Tips

After gettng sick of my carpet getting dirty easily, here are a few tips i found out for those who own pets. These tips are especially for them. Here they are

1)Go dark
Go for the darker shades of carpet and rugs. Lighter color are difficult to maintain.

2)Get it cleaned
In case your pet has urinated on the carpet,clean it immediately. Longer the stain stays,more stubborn it gets. Mix an equal ratio of water and liqud detergent,dip a soft clean cloth in the solution and wipe away the deposit.

3)Keep the hygiene
Vacuum your carpet and rugs regularly, and frequently in case you have pets roaming around, Because pet hair might warp and weft of the carpet and spoil the look if not removed.

4)Nail It
Your pet's nails might ruin the carpet by gettng stuck in the caret. In order to avoid this, cut the nails and keep them clean.

5)Place the doormat
Place the doormat at the entrance. This would help you by absorbing the dirt on the feet outside instead of making its way to the carpet.

Hope some of you out there got some nice ideas to ponder upon
