Vacuum high-traffic areas several times per week and less-used rooms at least once a week. A well-maintained vacuum with a clean filter removes more surface soil and pet hair.
Place mats at every exterior door to reduce the amount of soil, salt, and moisture tracked onto carpet. Shake or wash mats regularly so they stay effective.
Blot liquid spills with a clean white towel as soon as they happen. Avoid scrubbing, which can spread the spot and push it deeper into the fibers.
Many store-bought spot cleaners leave a sticky residue that attracts soil. Use them sparingly and rinse the area with clean water when possible.
Moving furniture periodically helps distribute wear more evenly across the carpet and prevents permanent indentations in high-traffic paths.
Cleaning carpet before it looks heavily soiled is easier and usually gives better results. Soil that works into the fibers over time can be harder to remove.
