Introduction
A clean carpet can instantly brighten a room, adding warmth and comfort underfoot. Unfortunately, carpets often suffer from dirt, stains, and odors caused by daily use, pets, or spills. Instead of relying on expensive professional cleanings or harsh chemicals, you can refresh your carpets at home with a simple, natural DIY mixture. This method is effective, safe for families and pets, and helps prolong the life of your carpets. Along with the recipe, here are five practical tips to keep your carpets looking their best.
Ingredients:
1 cup baking soda
15 drops of your favorite essential oil (such as lavender, eucalyptus, or tea tree)
Vacuum cleaner
How to make:
In a bowl, combine the baking soda with the essential oil drops. Mix well until the scent is evenly distributed throughout the baking soda.
Sprinkle the mixture generously over your carpet, focusing on areas with odors or stains.
Let it sit for at least 30 minutes, or preferably overnight, to allow the baking soda to absorb odors and freshen fibers.
Vacuum the carpet thoroughly, removing all residue. Repeat as needed for heavily soiled areas.
