How do I prevent getting allergies or reducing attacks?

You may be a lucky one who has never experienced allergies which can be like a full blown cold. Regardless anyone can get them at any time. It really amounts to when your immune system decides something is a threat. Regardless whatever triggers it, there are simple things you can do.

Washing your hair can get rid of dander or pollen that can easily attract to your hair. Washing your hair will remove those particles which in turn transfer onto your pillow case. Just make sure the shampoo you use isn't full of perfume that bothers you. If you smell your shampoo and it makes you sneeze, find something else.

Changing a pillow case can alleviate conditions for many. It is not always convenient, but worth the extra effort if you want to wake up in the morning and not have your head feel all stuffed up. If you have a pillow that you can wash that can be a huge difference for an allergy sufferer. Freezing a pillow or fuzzy toy can also kill problematic allergen causing issues provided you have a freezer with enough room. If your cat or dog is sneezing all the time a good vacuum or washing or freezing their fave toy can help them even if you are not currently having an issue. Hot water wash is best.

Finally a vacuum cleaner with a sealed system. A hepa filter system without a sealed system to contain it will do little to prevent filling the air with particles removed from your carpet.

A thorough carpet cleaning every 12 to 18 months at least in rooms that are used often can not only dramatically extend your carpet life, but prevent and alleviate conditions of allergy sufferers tremendously. A client was telling me how much cheaper it is to clean the carpets annually than provide medication for 4 allergy sufferers in the house. ;)

Regardless any or all of these things if feasible for you can make a big difference. Best Wishes!

Why are my carpets so dark around the edges?

So you have a light shade such as cream or white carpet and you are seeing a dark line around the edges? Why? Most vacuums leave up to 2 inches along the edges where either the brush doesn't get or suction power is reduced. So dust and debris builds up. Air flow along walls pulls it into the fibers.

Many are not aware of this and so it never gets done. However, even though it may be a pain if you break out the hose and vacuum along the edges every 3 months or even twice a year it will prevent a permanent dark feature stripe that even professional carpet cleaners cannot always bring back. While you are at it move that couch you may be surprised what is all under there. ;)

Furthermore, regardless of the color of your carpet, dust mites congregate in these dust piles of joy. If you suffer from allergies it can make a huge difference. If you hire a housekeeper that does your vacuuming make sure you ask them to get along the edges. Some are more detailed than others, but just be sure to inform them you want this done. Whether they are cleaning your home or office a little bit of extra detail whether every time or on occasion can save you from an unwanted feature stripe and eliminate problem causing dust mites.

How often should you vacuum? It really depends on your traffic. However, a good general rule for the average household is to vacuum twice a week, and have your carpets professionally cleaned once a year. For high traffic with pets and children you should clean your carpets anywhere between three and seven times a week, depending on how soiled the area is.

Magic erasers can be effective at removing marker as well. A fresh squeeze of lemon juice can also be effective and safe on many fabrics. If it is delicate fabric dilute 50/50 with water. Avoid rubbing blot when possible. Many people recommend hairspray. Don't do it! If you don't get it out it will set hard. Always test a hidden area first.
