How To Clean Disgusting Carpet

Many people believe that the dirtiest place on earth is the mouth of a dog until they have to learn how to clean disgusting carpet. Carpets play a big role in our society today. We sit on them, walk on them with all kinds of smelly feet, spill liquids that we can’t pronounce and do all kinds of things to carpets - if only they could talk.

Dirty carpets have been used in court because the evidence from some decades ago is still on it. As much as this is a good thing, carpets are notorious for three main health problems.

Here are the health problems you can expect if you continue entertaining a dirty carpet:

That your skin will become infected
Your immune system will stop working properly
You will develop with your breathing

Skin Infection

Dirty carpets are contributors to illnesses like athlete’s foot. The carpet acts as an accommodating habitat to bacteria and other micro living organisms that carry infections. We are fond of walking around on a carpet barefoot and this makes us very vulnerable to these parasites.

The spread of the infection will happen without us having the slightest clue. First, a bacteria will lurch on to our foot. They will choose a soft spot and make a huge bite or several. The sensation makes us want to scratch ourselves because of the itch. We may feel good as we scratch away at our big toe but the bacteria jumps on to our fingers.

We then scratch our head and the microparasite entires our head. Then complications begin and it was all started by having a dirty carpet. The bacteria will spread all over and that is the reason sometimes we feel the itching sensation simultaneously on different parts of our body.

If we happen to have open wounds on our feet then the infection will take a very short time before we become critically ill. The process described above will take a much longer time but by then the doctors will admit that it is too late.

Compromised Immune System

There is good bacteria and bad bacteria. Dirty carpets carry an infestation of really bad bacteria. Our bodies produce good bacteria to fight off bad ones.

Dirty carpets are infested with mold and some types of mold are a threat to our immune system. Their main purpose is to weaken the good bacteria and by doing so they eliminate our body defense mechanisms.

With no defense, any disease and infection can knock us dead. The problem is that dirty carpets cause illnesses that advance to the point of being non-curable. Instead of wasting money on an incurable disease, why not just prevent it in the first place by cleaning that disgusting carpet.

Breathing problems

If you just tap onto a disgusting dirty carpet, you will notice dust rising up in the air. This is a dangerous dust that carries microbes. Some of these bacteria can cause asthma.

The infectious dust on our disgusting carpets is loose and will be raised on the slightest touch. We do this by walking and other activities we carry on on a carpet.

When we breathe in this dust, it settles on our breathing system. This results in severe internal respiratory related diseases. The temporary irritation we immediately get is just the start to a life long breathing illness.

There are small animals that love this dirty carpet environment and mites enjoy this environment of filth and disgust. Mites are dangerous whether alive or dead. Dead mites are deadly to our skins and respiratory organs. The most visible symptom is the appearance of rashes but coming in contact with dust mites can lead to internal bleeding and much more worse.

It is essential to understand how a clean carpet can save us from painful lifelong diseases. Therefore it is vital to know how to clean a disgusting carpet Below are some directions on how to go about carpet cleaning:
