Your mother fussing about vacuuming is not merely a habit. In coastal homes, it is rather important. Sand becomes buried and acts as a stealthy abrasive tearing down fibers. Weekly (or even bi-weekly) vacuuming with a machine running a strong HEPA filter can help to remove most of the dust, dander, pollen, and—yes, beach leftovers. Use slow, overlapping strokes to get best pick-up. Treat it more like a slow waltz than speed dating; do not rush it.
Talk about spills: wine, coffee, or wet dog tracks. Blot; avoid scratch. Rubbing helps the dirt grind more into the fibers, which makes stains more difficult to clean later on. Press hard then dab with a fresh cloth. If your mark is tough, dilute a small bit of white vinegar with cold water. Sponge the area gently; then, blot once more. If at all possible, air dry; leave the hair drier for your hair, not the carpet.
Scents? Not simply for cakes, here’s another trick with baking soda. Cover the carpet with a layer before turning in for sleep. Finish it first thing in the morning. Baking soda picks out bad smells—fish and chips, Friday night curry, “wet Border Collie.” Drop some essential oil drops on the baking soda before distributing if you like a fresh scent. Works marvels either from lemon or eucalyptus.
Hardness of carpets suffers from furniture. Move large objects often to avoid crushed areas. Though your carpet will show even wear, which keeps it looking younger, longer, it takes a bit of exercise.
