Reducing Allergens in Your Carpet
Published on May 28, 2026
The Hidden Allergen Problem
Carpets act as filters, trapping dust, pollen, pet dander, and other allergens. While this keeps these particles out of the air, they accumulate in carpet fibres over time.
Dust Mites
Dust mites thrive in carpets, feeding on skin cells and multiplying in humid conditions. They are a common trigger for allergies and asthma.
Professional Cleaning Benefits
Hot water extraction cleaning can remove up to 95% of common household allergens from carpets. The high temperature also helps kill dust mites and bacteria.
Regular Maintenance
Combine professional cleaning with regular vacuuming using a HEPA filter vacuum to maintain low allergen levels in your home.
