If you have carpet in your house, you know how fast and easily stains can appear. With the rush and bustle of everyday life, you’re certain to experience a few bumps and spills along the road, no matter how careful you are.
But what about foul carpet odours? How do you deal with them? They’re certainly not enjoyable, and these odours make your home feel everything but calm.
The good news is that a foul carpet, which can lead to a smelly house, does not have to stay that way! If you’re seeking the most effective way to keep carpets smelling fresh, check out Reztor Restoration’s instructions below.
What Do You Need To Clean Carpets?
It is critical to determine where and how foul smells come from before you can remove them from your carpet.
Carpet odour may be caused by any number of things, including:
– Pet dander
– Sweaty feet
– Food or drink spillage
– Mould growth
– Cigarette smoke
– Cooking fumes
– Tobacco smoke
– Dust mites
– Other household chemicals
Once you’ve identified the source of the smell, it will be easier to find an effective solution.
Step 1: Get Rid Of Odour
To get rid of odours on the carpet, you’ll first need to eliminate their cause. It means getting rid of pet dander, food or drink spillage, cigarette smoke, cooking fumes, mould, dust mites, other household chemicals, tobacco smoke, and so forth.
You should also consider using a deodoriser if you notice strong odours from your carpet.
Step 2: Use A Rug Pad
Once you’ve removed the odour source, you’ll need to use a rug pad to absorb moisture.
Rug pads are made specifically for this purpose, and they work well at absorbing moisture and preventing it from seeping into the fibres of your carpet.
Rug pads are available in many different sizes, depending on the size of your carpet.
Step 3: Vacuum Your Carpet
Next, vacuum your carpet thoroughly. Make sure to use a high-quality vacuum cleaner, as cheap ones tend to leave behind particles that can trap odours.
Vacuuming your carpet often helps to prevent odours from building up over time.
Step 4: Wash Your Carpet
After vacuuming, wash your carpet with mild detergent and water.
To clean your carpet, apply the cleaning solution to all areas of your carpet.
Make sure to rinse your carpet thoroughly after washing, and let it dry completely before moving back home.
Step 5: Dry Your Carpet
Finally, once your carpet has dried, you can enjoy its new scent.
This process is time-consuming, but you’ll be pleasantly surprised by the difference it makes.

The Easy Way to Keep Your House Fresh
If you’re looking for more fresh-smelling house tips, you’re lucky because we have more! Consider the following suggestions.
- Diffuse essential oils throughout the room.
It is a natural and healthy method of eliminating scents in your home. Mix 4 to 5 drops of the oil with 4 ounces of water. If you don’t have or don’t want to buy a diffuser, you can always spray essential oils with a spray bottle.
- Use orange, lemon, or lime peels in the garbage disposal to eliminate odours.
- If you want to eliminate the odour from your kitchen sink, give your trash disposal some extra attention. A few delightfully scented peels are enough!
- In a crockpot, combine baking soda and water; set it on and let it do its thing!
- Crockpots are also useful for cleaning. Who knew? Instead of cooking dinner, create some new aromas in any space of your home. Set the crockpot to LOW and leave the lid off.
