Some Carpet Chemicals Are Hazardous for People & Pets

Planning on licking your carpet after a cleaning? Your dog might so watch out!

Hazardous residues can be unsafe, and residue might end up throughout your house by transferring from your shoes, socks or even your bare feet. The licking your carpet remark was partly a joke, however kids and babies may do so, and family pets definitely do. Even grownups sometimes drop food and consume it.

Keeping your carpet clean is essential for your quality-of-life and household health, however lots of property owners do not think of the toxic substances that remain in cleansing chemicals.
A current report discovered that the typical family had 62 poisonous chemicals or their carpet. Your carpets and floor can be like a chemical factory that exposes your household to harmful fumes, toxic substances, germs and chemicals that trigger asthma attacks, reproductive conditions, nerve damage, hormonal agent disturbance, and cancer.

Carpet Chemicals & Their Threats

There are some chemicals that should not be utilized in houses. They can trigger allergies, toxicity and even damage air quality. A few of the riskiest chemicals consist of:

  • Glycol Ethers
  • Lp, butane, and isobutane
  • Chloride
  • Salt bisulfate, salt carbonate, and salt hydroxide
  • Perchloroethylene
  • Hydrofluoric acid

Any of the above chemicals can trigger inflammation and rashes when breathed or brought into contact with your skin. The potential for chemical interactions is greater when you have older carpets that might have accumulated various chemicals throughout the years.

Home Cleaners that Generate Threats

Cleaning liquids with formaldehyde, glycol ethers, ammonia, bleach, and chlorine might be ticking time bombs for relatives or pets. Bleach and ammonia produce harmful gases when blended. Lots of active ingredients are carcinogenic and put kids and pets in danger of liver and kidney damage, anemia, and cancer. A few of the threats consist of:

  • Ammonia can burn mucous membranes and worsen asthma.
  • Glycol ethers, in glass cleaners, are connected to anemia, kidney damage and lung damage in individuals and animals.
  • Formaldehyde is a component discovered in soaps and animal hair shampoos.
  • Flooring cleaners like Mr. Clean and Pine Sol produce vapors that threaten pets.
  • Professional-strength Carpet Chemicals

Poisonous Residues in Play Environments

Toddlers and family pets spend their time on floors and carpets, and keeping an eye out for their security isn’t a little problem. Family pets and kids have weak immune systems, little lungs and quick metabolic processes. The impact of hazardous chemicals and residues can be dangerous.

There are other dangers that you need to think about. If the carpet is left damp for too long, it can end up being a breeding place for mold, mildew, germs and different fungis.

  • Just wanted you to know what a GREAT job your men did on cleaning our carpet last week! This was the first time I tried your company and I was thoroughly impressed. Your men came in and asked if there were any stains that they needed to pre-treat. They gave special attention to those areas, getting them to look just like new!I would highly recommend your company! And your employees were extremely professional.

    We are so happy with the service that we received from Advanced Carpet Cleaning. Our carpets look amazing and the gentlemen providing the service were very kind and professional. They were able to remove all stains and carefully moved furniture when needed. Their level of customer service was outstanding!

    I can’t recommend Advanced Carpet Care enough. Their work is excellent and the prices are great too. They came with 2 men, which speeds things up. They also moved all my furniture out of the way so they could clean all the carpet. I typically have seen other companies just go around obstacles but these guys actually move stuff so they can be thorough. After they left, the carpets looked like new and smelled fresh.We have been putting off carpet cleaning because of the chemicals, but these guys use GREEN non-toxic solutions and they still leave you with really clean carpets! If they need a little more cleaning power they can use a mild detergent that is still very earth friendly.Lastly, they are a local business, and I prefer giving my money to the smaller service-minded business over a large corporation.

    Great experience cleaning my carpets. Quick and efficient and did a fantastic job cleaning. They were able to remove a couple stains that were stubborn when we tried to remove them ourselves. Will definitely hire them again
