Did you know? Carpets are able to hold eight times their weight in toxin-filled trapped dirt, capturing it within the fibres and underneath it.
Most carpet cleaners are highly toxic leaving dangerous fumes and residues like perchloregthlene and ammonium hydroxide. The former is a known carcinogen which can damage the liver, kidneys and nervous system while the latter is a corrosive which can irritate eyes, skin and respiratory passages.
Make sure you vacuum or air your carpet regularly.
