Love that infographic...great job!

People don't realize that most of their INDOOR environments are MORE POLLUTED than their OUTDOOR environments.

Get outside people!!!!...OR have your carpets and upholstery professionally steam cleaned once or twice every year. Especially if you have babies that love to roll around on your carpets.

27 Reasons You Need to Clean Your Carpets ASAP!

Could your carpet be affecting your health? Most carpet manufacturers recommend professional carpet cleaning at least every 12 - 18 months and here's why:

Children are at a greater risk
- The average American child spends 90% of their time indoors.
- 75% of people admit to walking on carpet with shoes, dragging in dust, allergens and pollutants.
- Carpets contain high amounts of allergens in bedrooms causing respiratory problems while sleeping.
- According to a national survey, there is a correlation between severe asthma and amount of dust found in carpets.
- Microscopic lead dust is often found in carpet. Many studies show a relationship between lead levels in carpet and children's blood levels.
Hidden Bacteria and Viruses
- Carpets have been found to be 4000 times dirtier than your toilet seat.
- Four out of ten people have never had their carpets professionally cleaned.
Indoor Air Quality Declines as Carpets Trap Pollutants
- The EPA ranks indoor air pollution among the top five environmental risks to public health.
- Vacuuming twice a week has been shown to reduce airborne particles by up to 50%.
- Due to agitating the carpet, airborne dust levels actually rise significantly directly after vacuuming (steam cleaning combats this).
Dust Mites
- Studies show that dust mites are one of the highest leading causes of asthma and indoor allergies in children.
- An ounce of dust can carry 40,000 dust mites
Mold, Fungal Infections, and Mycotoxins
- Mold spores are small enough to hide in carpet fibers. Exporsure to mold has been directly linked to asthma in children.
- Many molds cause hay fever like symptoms and asthma attacks.
- Some molds contain Mycotoxins that can be especially bad for your health.
- Hidden mold spores in your carpet can start to spread within 24 hours of being exposed to moisture.
Chemicals
- Some newer carpet contains VOC's (Volatile Organic Compounds) that can cause respiratory problems when released into the air.
- Biological and chemical contaminants were found to be far higher in rooms with un-cleaned carpets.
- Steam cleaning reduces higher levels of lead dust in carpet when compared to vacuuming alone.
Allergies and Asthma
- 25 million people suffer from asthma and 50 million suffer from indoor allergies.
- Studies show most carpet carries between 5 and 25 grams of dirt and dust per square meter.
- 50% of all illnesses are caused by polluted indoor air.
- Routine steam cleaning can reduce up to 98% of allergens from your carpet and drastically increase indoor air quality.
