Preventing dirt and grime from getting on the carpet in the first place is a great way to start keeping it clean. The following helpful hints can stop dirt in its tracks.
- Use mats: Outdoor and indoor mats or runners can reduce the amount of dirt that enters the house.
- Take off your shoes: You can save wear and tear on carpet by asking everyone to take their shoes off before entering your home.
- Change your air filters: Change air filters in your heating and air-conditioning systems as recommended by the manufacturer’s directions. The more dust and particles removed by the filter, the fewer that fall onto the carpet.
