Rugs And Carpets Need Extra
Care During The Holidays
Holiday seasons are no holi
day for rugs and carpets.
In fact, they get some of
their roughest treatment dur
ing holiday festivities, Miss Ava
Rodgers, home furnishings and
art specialist for the University
of Georgia Agricultural Exten
sion Service, pointed out this
week.
Rugs and carpets probably
will need thorough cleanings at
least twice during the ap
proaching holidays — once be
fore the season begins in get
ting the home spruced up for
holiday visitors, and again to
clean up candy and other foods
dropped by excited youngsters
and the mess often caused by
decorations.
THE COVINGTON NEWS
In addition to thorough va- I
cuuming, rugs and carpets fre- j
quently need spot cleaning be
cause it is difficult to clean
them completely very often,
she said.
Miss Rodgers gave the fol
lowing suggestions for s p o t
cleaning:
First, be prepared by having
a good spot cleaner readily
available because the sooner a
spot is removed the better. Test
the cleaner for the fabric’s re
action to it on an inconspicuous
place on your rugs and carpets
before the need for it arises. If
you wait until you need the
cleaner to make this test you
may lose valuable time.
Use any cleaner sparingly,
and never wet the carpet
through to the backing. Care
should be used when applying
dry cleaning fluid to carpets
with foam or latex rubber
backing because the solvent
will degrade rubber.
Start at the outside of soiled
area and work toward the cen
ter. After cleaning, dry as rap
idly as possible and raise the
nap with a stiff bristled brush
or comb. If practical, raise the
rug and turn a fan on it while
it dries.
Always have a room well
ventilated while using cleaning
fluid.
There is a best way to clean
every substance from a r u g
or carpet, Miss Rodgers said.
Her advice on some of t h e
most common is:
Greasy and oily stains: Use a
dry cleaning fluid, following
instructions carefully.
Milk or milk products:
Sponge with a detergent and
water solution (one to two ta
blespoons dishwashing deter
gent per gallon of water) until
removed: then sponge with
clear water.

Fruit Juices: Blot up liquids
as soon as possible with damp
cloth. Sponge several times
with clear water. If spot re
mains, sponge lightly with so
lution of one tablespoon of
ammonia or baking soda per
quart of water to neutralize the
acid. Sponge again with clear I
water.
Wax: Use a stiff bristle brush
to remove dried wax. On spots
caused by cleaning waxes or
other waxy stains, use dry
cleaning fluid. If stain remains,
rub with warm, soapy water
or a foam - type rug cleaner.
