Everyone loves to lounge around on the couch. It’s where you relax, kids jump around,  and pets love to curl up. On occasion, you may even bring a slice of Giuseppe to enjoy with your favorite TV show. But have you ever stopped to wonder what might be lurking on and inside your couch?

Without regular upholstery cleaning, things can get ugly. This blog sheds more light on these details.

Oh, The Horrors!

Failing to regularly clean the couch can give rise to quite a few issues. First and foremost, dust, dirt, and debris will line the surface and accumulate within the crevices of your couch. This could lead to allergies, respiratory issues, and even skin irritation for those using the space. Other than dust, your couch may also harbor germs, bacteria, and mold, which can make people very sick.

The longer you wait to clean your couch, the more difficult it’ll be for professional upholstery cleaners to remove dirt and debris. As time passes, fibers of the upholstery break down, and stains that could’ve been removed earlier, become permanent. If a piece of furniture is ignored too long, pests such as bed bugs, fleas, and dust mites may also become permanent residents.

So, What Does One Do?

Professional upholstery cleaning is the way to go. Trained experts remove deeply ingrained dirt, stains, and bacteria that regular vacuuming and spot cleaning can’t eliminate. Specialized equipment and cleaning solutions to deep clean your couch thoroughly without damaging its fabric. Not only that, but they can also identify and treat specific stains or odors.

How Often Should Couches Be Cleaned?

There’s no right answer. It all comes down to how much your couch is used, the number of people and pets in your household, and whether anyone in your home has allergies or respiratory issues.
