Time gets away from us and before long, we realize that certain areas of our home, apartment, townhouse, or condo have yet to be managed. One thing that is often overlooked is carpeting.
Notice how much dust, debris and other things hide in the carpet fibers. If it has been a long time since you cleaned a carpet, consider sprinkling it with powders used to remove fleas and other insects seen and unseen first, let set for the time allotted on the product and then vacuum. A quick google search and you will discover things like carpet fleas that will bite when hidden in carpet before or after a shampoo.
When you begin to clean, be sure you remove as many items as you can off the rug you plan to shampoo. If you don't, you will learn as you move items how unsightly it looks when some areas have not been shampooed. You will also want to consider what you are keeping and what you plan to throw away.
Also before you begin your task, do dust, vacuum, and perform cleaning like wiping off items and walls. The room looks so much better when everything looks fresh and clean again!
