The Carpet Cleaning Trick You’re Probably Skipping

Want fresher, cleaner carpets without spending a fortune on fancy products?
There’s a simple, affordable trick hiding in your pantry: baking soda.

🧽 Why Use Baking Soda on Carpets?

Baking soda is a natural deodoriser and gentle abrasive. It:

• Absorbs odours from pets, food, or musty rooms
• Loosens dirt and debris, making vacuuming more effective
• Leaves your carpets smelling fresh and clean

🧺 How to Use It – Step by Step

1. Sprinkle baking soda generously over your carpet.
2. Let it sit for at least 15–30 minutes (longer for deeper odours—overnight is fine too).
3. Vacuum slowly to lift the baking soda and the grime it trapped.

🕓 How Often Should You Do This?

Once every 1–2 weeks keeps your carpets in top condition—more often in high-traffic or pet areas.

🐾 Safe for Pets and Kids?

Yes! Baking soda is non-toxic. Just make sure it’s fully vacuumed up before playtime resumes.



Bonus Tip:

Add a few drops of essential oil (like lavender or lemon) to your baking soda before sprinkling for a light, natural scent boost.
