2. Children of around 3-4 years of age, particularly crawling toddlers, are
susceptible to significant health risks due to carpet hygiene issues. As kids are
likely to put various objects lying around on carpets, they can come in contact
with germs easily while crawling around on carpets.
These drooling, licking, touching activities of small kids have been known to
be at a significantly higher health risk on carpets than on floors.
3. It is important for mothers to realize that carpets are much
like giant sponges. Whatever is spilled on it will most likely
stay inside and fester, unless taken care of in an expedient
manner.
4. Carpet’s uncleanliness

routines can also pose
significantly dangerous
health risks to toddlers in
some cases. So bottom line
on carpet cleaning advice
for a house with kids: stay
clean and safe at the same
time. Below, we have listed
some substances and
actions related to carpet
cleaning that pose harm to

5. MOISTURE ABSORPTION
Water spillages are the worse things you can ignore on your carpet. Yes, it will
eventually absorb or even evaporate; however, the latent moisture is a
breeding ground for bacteria and mold. Moldy carpets are extremely toxic for
toddlers, who might come into direct contact with it. Moisture should be
immediately aired and blotted to reduce the chances of mold.
6. CHEMICALS
Carpet cleaning chemicals and even some devices can leave behind toxic
residue. These harmful substances can cause a number of disorders or health
risks to small children. Kids can be exposed to threats by not just through
swallowing chemicals, but also through inhaling of fumes.
7. Plenty of professional cleaning services use extremely harsh and dangerous chemical
processes which can leave a dangerous amount of toxic residual fumes. These fumes
are far more potent than regular domestic cleaning products, and, therefore, their
after effects can easily last for days or even weeks. Hence, it is imperative that you opt
for the right professionals who ensure the safety of your family yet ensure proper
cleaning.

8. What to Do???
Regular vacuuming, blotting of liquid spillages, and scraping of semi-solid spillages
can cut down germ infestation. It is important to prevent germ and dust exposure
by limiting dust access (doormats or window seals). While buying domestic cleaning
chemicals, always go for milder and natural based remedies. If hiring a professional
carpet cleaner, it would be prudent to research for kid-friendly alternatives.
Nowadays, plenty of child-safe professional cleaners are operational.
We at Advanced Surface Solutions ensure your carpets are cleaned
without causing any harm to the kids or other family members.
