Q: Why does my area rug smell after cleaning?

• <div><p>There are a few reasons your area rug smells after cleaning. First, you might have agitated dirt, dust, and pet dander deep in the rug during cleaning, which might smell for a day or two if you didn&rsquo;t remove it all. Second, if your rug smells like chemicals, it&rsquo;s possible you didn&rsquo;t rinse out all of the rug cleaning solution you used. Finally, if you didn&rsquo;t hang up your rug to dry completely, it could be holding moisture and allowing mold to grow. In any of these cases, it&rsquo;s a good idea to defer to a professional for help.</p></div>

Q: Is it better to clean carpet with hot or cold water?

• <div><p>You should always use hot water to clean your carpets. The heat will help lift dirt and stains as you work over them with your carpet cleaner. Before you fill your tank, allow your faucet to run until you&rsquo;re sure the water is hot and ready to go.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to get an oriental rug cleaned?

• <div><p>The average cost to have a professional clean an oriental rug is around <b>$6</b> <b>per square foot</b>, and most cleaners charge between <b>$5 and $9 per square foot</b>. The size of your rug will be a major factor when it comes to cleaning costs. For example, a 6x9 foot rug will cost $320 on average, while a 9x12 foot rug will cost $650 or more.</p><p>The state of your oriental rug will also play a role, as rugs that are excessively dirty and haven&rsquo;t been cleaned in years will take longer to clean and, therefore, cost more.</p></div>

Q: Is peroxide or vinegar better for urine smell?

• <div><p>Hydrogen peroxide is usually better for getting rid of urine smells on hardwood than vinegar. Unlike vinegar, hydrogen peroxide is odorless. This can be advantageous if you have a dog that likes to mark areas with a strong scent. Also, hydrogen is a strong oxidizer that can break down bacterial odors, and it is less likely to remove the finish on hardwood flooring than vinegar. Never mix hydrogen peroxide and vinegar. This creates corrosive and toxic peracetic acid.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take a wool rug to dry after cleaning?

• <div><p>A wool rug can take between 8 to 10 hours to fully dry after cleaning, or even longer, depending on humidity, temperature, and air flow. The better the air circulation in the area where you hang a wool rug to dry, the faster it&rsquo;ll go. It&rsquo;s important to ensure that wool rugs are completely dry before you place them back on the floor. If the rug is still damp, it could grow mold and mildew.</p></div>
