Cleaning Carpet?

Is there any other way to clean carpeting other than hiring a professional company or purchasing and expensive carpet cleaning machine? I seem to remember someone on this site suggested using a sponge mop, but I didn't read the complete information as I had just had my carpets cleaned professionally.

Thanks for any help.

There are all kinds of ways a person can clean carpeting, depending on the amount of elbow grease they want to use. Most methods leave a soapy residue on the carpeting that attracts dirt sooner than when the carpeting was new.

My late aunt used to mix up a soapy mixture using an egg beater to make it nice and foamy and using a scrub brush she would get down on her hands and knees and dip the brush into the foamy part and brush it into the carpet.

She would have to beat the mixture frequently to keep it foamy, because she didn't want to get the carpeting wet like the water would have made it.

In the long run buying your own carpet cleaner would be cheaper than having a professional come in and do it. The machine will pay for itself after 2-3 uses, maybe sooner depending on how much carpeting you have to clean.

Hey, it is very easy to clean the carpets or rugs at your home. I always clean them at my home. Vinegar is the best cleaning agent I have ever seen. There are many more homemade tips for cleaning the carpets.

Refer the link below for more information on that
