How Do You Make A Homemade Carpet Cleaning Solution?
The types of vacuum cleaners on the market are numerous and sometimes confusing. There are dry-vacs, wet-vacs, carpet sweepers and small robotics that do the housekeeping for you. Each vacuum cleaner seemingly requires a slightly different type of carpet cleaning solution in order to function. If the choices stress you out, forgo the commercial cleaners completely and make your own homemade version. Find a gallon-sized container that has a lid so you can combine and store your homemade carpet shampoo easily. A milk container that has been rinsed clean may be an ideal choice. Pour 1/4 to 1/2 cup of dish detergent into the container. Trial and error may help you determine the exact measurement for your carpets. One half cup of detergent may be too sudsy for carpeting with a very short pile. Add an equal part (1/4 or 1/2 cup, depending on the measurement you use) of a liquid fabric softener to the container. Measure out 1 cup of ammonia and add to the carpet cleaning mixture. You may want
