Did you know your carpets could be affecting your health? Over time, carpets trap dust, food particles, pet dander, and moisture. These can lead to the growth of bacteria, dust mites, and even mould. The result may be allergies, skin irritation, breathing difficulties, and unpleasant odours. The health risks of dirty carpets are often overlooked, but they can impact families, especially children, elderly residents, and anyone with asthma or sensitive skin.
So, can dirty carpets make you sick? While carpets themselves don’t spread illness, the contaminants inside them may worsen allergy symptoms, irritate skin, or trigger respiratory flare-ups. Dust mites are a common cause of allergies, and mould in damp carpets can affect indoor air quality.
