Q: What stops cats from peeing in the house?

• <div><p>Your cat may pee in the house in spots where cats have previously left urine stains, so make sure to clean any pet urine stains thoroughly. Avoid using ammonia cleaners if you have cats, as the smell can also attract them to relieve themselves. </p></div>

Q: How long does mildew smell last in carpet?

• <div><p>The duration of mildew smell in carpets depends on several factors, including the extent of moisture, cleanliness, and ventilation. If promptly addressed, the smell can diminish within a few days to a couple of weeks after thoroughly drying and cleaning the carpet. However, in severe cases or if not properly treated, the smell might persist. Persistent odors could indicate deeper mildew growth, requiring professional cleaning or, in extreme cases, carpet replacement to completely eliminate the smell.</p></div>

Q: Is it better to steam clean or shampoo a rug?

• <div><p>Different rug cleaning companies may prefer different methods of <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-clean-your-area-rugs.htm">cleaning for area rugs</a>, but many prefer to steam-clean rugs and carpeting. Steam cleaning avoids using detergents and cleaners that can be sticky or contain harsh chemicals. Shampooing a rug requires using brushes to agitate and remove the cleaning agent from the carpet, possibly subjecting the carpet fibers to unnecessary wear and tear.</p></div>

Q: How can you use vinegar and baking soda to remove old stains from carpet?

• <div><p>Vinegar and baking soda can be effective for removing old carpet stains, although success may depend on the type of stain. There are two common methods for this process.</p><p>One method involves combining the ingredients directly on the stain to create a chemical reaction. First, pour a generous layer of dry baking soda over the stain. In a spray bottle, mix distilled white vinegar with 1 cup of warm water and a few drops of liquid dish soap, then spray this solution thoroughly over the baking soda. The mixture will foam as the acidic vinegar reacts with the basic baking soda, which helps loosen and lift the stain. Let this sit for a few hours until it dries, then wipe or vacuum up the residue and blot the area with a clean, dry towel. You can repeat the process if the stain persists.</p><p>An alternative method suggests using the ingredients separately. Start by sprinkling baking soda on the stain and letting it sit for 15 to 30 minutes before vacuuming it up. Next, blot the remaining stain with a solution of equal parts white vinegar and water, and then blot the area dry with a clean cloth.</p></div>

Carpet Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Deciding whether to clean or replace your carpet depends on its condition and age. If cleaning no longer resolves issues, it's time to consider a replacement. Key signs that you need to replace your carpet include:

Stains that are impossible to remove.
A persistent smell that lingers even after cleaning.
An increase in allergy symptoms.
The age of the carpet. Most manufacturers state that carpets should last about 10 years with proper care.

When cleaning is no longer effective, you should replace the carpet with a new one or consider other flooring options like vinyl or laminate.

Your cat may pee in the house in spots where cats have previously left urine stains, so make sure to clean any pet urine stains thoroughly. Avoid using ammonia cleaners if you have cats, as the smell can also attract them to relieve themselves.
