Carpet Cleaning Tips: Blot Stains, Don't Scrub Them!            Carpet Cleaning Castle Rock 

When a stain or spill first occurs most Castle Rock homeowners will reach for a carpet cleaning spotter and just start scrubbing as hard as they can. No matter what has been spilled you must resist the urge to immediately start scrubbing as hard as you can. This aggressive scrubbing will only make things worse as you will only spread the stain down into the carpet and padding.  Instead, pull want to try gently dab stains with a cleaning solution and a clean cloth starting from the outside of the stain and lifting up. 

"The key is blotting. Blotting puts a small amount of pressure on the stain, so you can soak it up. Aggressive scrubbing causes the particles to get pushed further into the carpets fibers, which if its a liquid will certainly get into the backing of the carpet and maybe into the padding and subfloor as well. 

Another problem with scrubbing the stain is you can actually damage the fibers by fraying the carpets. Once this damage occurs theres nothing you can do too reverse the damage. This fiber damage will be noticeable and will likely become very noticeable.
