?the carpet is regularly vacuumed and clean, the dirt, dust, dander, and particles are effectively removed from the carpet and out of the house. however, the problems arise when the carpet stays unattended for a long time. it may become saturated will all the contaminants it has filtered, and with minimum movement, the overflowing allergens can be sent back into the air once again, easily entering the respiratory systems of household members.
another reason for diseases caused by a dirty carpet is the presence of dust mites that feed on human skin cells, fungi, and bacteria. the dirtier a carpet, the more attractive it will be as a breeding place for dust mites. studies show that a majority of us residents are allergic to dust mites, and contact with or inhalation of the excrement and dead body parts of these tiny creatures can cause them terrible skin rashes, runny noses, and itchy eyes.
