The carpet in your home provides you and your family with a great deal of comfort. At the same time it provides a welcoming environment to your guests and an additional layer of décor throughout your home. Carpet also acts as a catch for anything that is spilled, splattered or dumped, and this can not only lead to unsightly stains, but also very foul smells that will linger throughout your home. Preventing your carpet from any foul smells can easily be avoided by taking certain steps.
 

Create Proper Ventilation Throughout your Home

One of the first and most important steps to take to prevent foul odors from forming throughout your home is to create proper ventilation. Good ventilation will help get rid of bad smells that are already existing, and if you have cleaned up an accident on your carpet, ventilation will help to dry this area out and keep it from stinking up the entire house. Carpet will also suck in smoke, so if you have a smoker living inside of your home, encourage them to do so outside only, but proper ventilation will help to keep the smoke smell at a minimum. The best way to remove these types of smells from your carpet is to contact ADC Carpet Cleaning Specialists to deodorize your carpet and leave it smelling fresh and new.
 

Eliminate Humidity Within the House

One of the biggest offenders of smelly carpet is humidity within the home. Humidity in the home can create an environment where mold and mildew can grow and grow fast. Mildew and mold can form beneath the fibers of your carpet and onto the padding of your floor, creating not only a very foul smelling home, but also a dangerous one. Mildew and mold can create a dangerous living environment and is never healthy to breathe in, ever. ADC Carpet Cleaning Specialists will remove mold and mildew from your carpet and make sure that your home is comfortable.
