Allergy Season is in Full Bloom.
People wake up each morning and check the pollen level report and hope for better air quality than the day before. We all know pollen is our enemy. There is another allergy triggering enemy of which we may not be aware.
Carpet. Unknown to many, the carpet in any room of your house is the largest air filter present. Let’s take a look at exactly what that means to the air quality in your home.
As it filters air, carpet gives a safe home to several offenders known to make people sick: (P.S. Carpet Cleaning can help reduce all of these)
- Dust Mites: Some studies reveal that as many as 100,000 mites live in one square yard of carpet. While the dust mites themselves do not cause problems for people, their feces and body parts do. Dust mites can cause health issues ranging from itchy, watery eyes to severe symptoms such as respiratory illness and asthma.
- Mold: No on likes mold, especially homeowners with carpet. Mold spores can be present when there is no visible mold. When inhaled, these spores can cause headaches, coughs and eye/throat irritation.
- Pet dander: Homes with pets unwillingly bring dander into the home. Pet dander is know to be the culprit in onset sinusitis as well as other upper respiratory illnesses.
- Pollen: Believe it or not, pollen does not just put a coat of light yellow on your vehicle, it assaults your home as well. Your family brings pollen into the home from their clothing. It’s no secret pollen puts tens of thousands of people in an allergy fog each year, often leading to infection and illness in need of a doctor’s care.
Allergens can settle into the carpet and float up into the air once carpet is walked upon. When you and your family breathe the allergens, they may become sick. It is in your best interest to make your home as safe and healthy as possible.
Regular vacuuming will help eliminate allergens, but nothing combats the hidden danger in the home like deep carpet cleaning done by a professional. Money spent on cleaning carpet translates to money saved with a healthy family.
