If it's been a while since you last cleaned your carpet, then you might not be too worried. After all, if it doesn't look filthy, then it's probably fine, right? Unfortunately, there are many health problems that might be lurking beneath the surface of your carpet. For instance:
Mold
Mold can be a pretty serious health condition, especially if anyone in your house has a compromised immune or respiratory system. Spores can easily travel around the house, embedding themselves in your lungs and causing serious discomfort, if not health problems.
- Having high pile rugs at home is one of the safest features you can have if you are a parent to a baby or toddler. Young children can fall and hurt themselves badly on tile or hardwood flooring, making the addition of thick rugs an easy way to provide a safe place for them to play or lay on in their bedrooms or the living area. Even with the benefits of high pile rugs, you need to consider how quickly they can become dirty.
