How Carpet Cleaning Helps With Your Minneapolis Allergies

Allergy season is approaching in Minneapolis. Even though the spring is all about the weather getting warmer and life coming back into plants, it can mean a stuffy nose and more for humans. If allergies are getting you even when you’re inside, it might be time to get your carpets cleaned. While vacuuming might help, getting a deep carpet clean will get the allergens out of your carpet.

Carpet Fibers

Carpets have fibers, which can act like a filter for some allergens. As the allergens in the air stick to your carpets, they will stay put and be out of the air. To some people, it might seem like a solution, but those allergens aren’t gone, just on the carpet. As you walk around, these allergens can be kicked up, making the allergens circulate in the air. Even after vacuuming, some allergens are embedded into the carpets deeper than your vacuum will reach. A deep carpet clean can get your carpets to be nearly allergen free.

Other Allergens

It’s not just allergen, like pollen that gets embedded into your carpets. There will also be dust and some mold spores that could get worse over time. While vacuuming regularly will help decrease the amount of dust and mold in your home, a deep clean twice a year will make sure your home’s air is clean of dust and mold. 

Mold vs. Carpet Cleaning

Speaking of mold spores, the carpet cleaning method can be important when picking out your carpet cleaner. The wet carpet cleaning method can leave moisture in your carpets, which can increase the mold in your carpets instead of clean it out.
