The rainy season is the most difficult since it not only affects the exterior of the property but also the interior. The interior of the house seems wet because of the high humidity and moisture content during this period. The same dampness makes the carpet unsanitary. During the monsoon, carpets become more susceptible to the growth and development of hazardous germs and mold, which can have severe repercussions. There are other factors, such as mud, leaves, waterlogging, grime, and so on, that make carpet maintenance and cleaning during the rainy season an important aspect of house cleaning.
Keep outdoor shoes out of the house and use separate shoes or slippers inside. You can keep separate pairs of indoor slippers for the family and visitors. Install a shoe rack directly outside the main door or entrance to keep muddy or damp shoes out of the home. As a result, your carpets will be safe from outdoor dirt and dust, as well as falling leaves and mud, which would otherwise be carried in by shoes.
During the rainy season, it is safer to roll up your valuable Persian carpet and store it. Instead, a decorative bamboo or coir mat can be used. To protect the rolled carpet from moisture and inadvertent leaks and damages, wrap it with a plastic sheet. Acrylic washable carpets are light, washable, and quick to dry, so buy a few of those for use during the rainy season. These are frequently available in bright colours and patterns.
The humid and wet climate provides ideal conditions for bacteria and mold to thrive and flourish more quickly. The moisture or dampness in the carpets increases during this season. This dampness and moisture can attract dirt and dust. Install a dehumidifier in your home to help reduce the amount of humidity inside.
In spite of precautions, dirt and mud will surely appear at some point. Clean these stains as soon as possible. Mud should be easy to remove from the carpet without harsh cleaning chemicals. Blot the area with a dry, clean cloth first. This should remove the moisture as well as the dirt from the carpet if you detected it early enough. If the dirt remains after this step, use vinegar to blot the stain gently.
Dirt and mud tracked in on shoes can be prevented using doormats. You should have two mats for each entry in your home, one outdoor and one indoor. Since it is the initial point of contact with shoes and should remove the majority of debris, an outer mat should be a bit bulkier and constructed of tough and bristle-like material. An indoor mat can be used to wipe away minute particles. Remember to clean and vacuum your mats on a regular basis.
Do not attempt to manage everything on your own because you are not a professional cleaner with years of experience. Call expert carpet cleaners as soon as possible, especially if you have a leak or flood damage in your home. They know how to operate efficiently and apply the appropriate products to your carpets. They can begin restoration services as soon as possible to minimize the damages
