Grass, Pollen, Dirt and other Garden Related Carpet Stains
Summer is a great time of year for enjoying your garden and the great outdoors. However, this period can also lead to the build up and creation of some stubborn summer stains in your carpets. One of the most popular summer stains we are asked to tackle is grass stains on carpets, especially around main routes directly to or from the garden such as the carpet area in front of patio doors.
These highly trafficked areas of carpet can collect a great deal of dirt and over time look very bad. By restoring the carpet to its “as new” clean condition you can almost feel like you have a new carpet!
Grass, especially freshly cut, can create a very unique dark green stain – you only have to look at the soles of your feet after walking barefoot in your garden to see what is collected and what is then being walked across your carpets. Add any children or pets in to this equation and you can quickly accumulate some pretty dirty spots and stains on your carpets!
Another stain that is particular hard to tackle, and can definitely be made worse with the wrong treatment, is pollen staining. This can not only come from the outdoors but as the cost of cut flowers from supermarkets decreases, more and more people are buying flowers that then drop pollen in your home.
