No one wants to be in an apartment if the carpet is a source of an unpleasant odor.

Some people believe that in such a case you should immediately contact the dry cleaner.

But this decision can be called premature: any housewife can cope with the problem.

What needs to be done for this?

Using essential oils

Many people still do not know about the range of valuable properties that essential oils have. They not only eliminate unpleasant odors and give any item a special aroma, but are also deadly for pathogenic flora.

First, you need to completely clean the carpet, paying due attention to cleaning. After that, in a container with a spray, dilute 20 drops of any essential oil with an antibacterial effect.

Soda

The remaining powder is removed with a vacuum cleaner.
