When you can't stop sneezing or itching in your office, at home or anywhere else. Or you see it happening to other people, for example, your customers. The carpet might be the culprit that's causing issues for allergy sufferers.
The carpet is a perfect breeding ground for allergens, which may be causing allergy symptoms in people. Allergens are generally proteins or larger molecules that enter the body and cause an immune response. The term is usually used to refer to substances released by plants, animals, or other living organisms. Listed below are some common allergens found in carpets.
Dust Mites
The little creatures thrive in the indoor climate and are most prevalent in carpeted areas with moisture. To survive, they absorb the moisture created by those surfaces. House dust mite excrement is considered to be one of the most common causes of asthma attacks, hypersensitive nasal membrane inflammations, chronic skin diseases like eczema and dermatitis. The treatment of dust mites is crucial for those who have allergies.
Pet Dander
It is a microscopic fleck of skin shed from cats, dogs, and other animals with fur or feathers. Older pets seem to produce more pet dander than young ones. Moreover, animal dander circulates in the air longer than most allergens, making it easy for it to spread from home to home, even if there are no animals living on the property and this can worsen asthma and allergic rhinitis.
Mold
This fungus is commonly found in damp, dark, poorly ventilated areas. Occasionally, this chemical shows up as a residue in spoiled food or spilled liquids, as well as household dust. Taking in large amounts of mold can trigger allergies and respiratory problems. In certain types of mold, referred to as toxic mold, neurological problems may result, particularly if long-term exposure is sustained.

Our Allergy Treatment Control Treatment Process
Our allergy control treatment process includes five steps. It's a combination treatment of carpet steam cleaning with allergy control.
Step #1 - Pre-Inspection
Our technicians will inspect the carpets at your property. We will first inspect the area to be cleaned to find out the best cleaning methods and technique for the material, stains, and allergens. Our technicians also examine the type of carpet fibre to determine the best natural cleaning products to use.
Step #2 - Pre-Vacuum
With our HEPA filters, we will vacuum all areas of your carpeted flooring to remove any loose particles from the surface.
Step #3 - Pre-Spotting
Prespotting by Ellis Carpet Cleaning involves natural solutions. The pre-spotting process is carried out by applying a diluted version of our appropriate pre-spotting treatment to the carpet surface. In general, this will break down the staining and carpet soiling issues that take place.
Step #4 - Anti-Allergen Steam Cleaning
Our steam cleaners are equipped with an anti-allergen cleaning solution mix. When we clean with the solution, allergens and bacteria will be removed from the carpet.
Step #5 - Post-Spotting
Now, we spray a layer of an antimicrobial agent on your carpet in order to inhibit the growth of mildew or mold on the surface of your carpet.
Step #6 - Neutralizing
The final step is the application of a neutralizer, which will help remove any residue left from our products or process ensuring your carpeting is ready for use again.
How Do Allergens Affect People
Even though allergens may be disgusting, in most cases, they do not cause harm to the majority of people. However, the medical significance of allergens arises from the fact that they cause an allergic reaction in the immune system. The majority of individuals are not aware that certain symptoms, such as chronic fatigue and joint pain, may be caused by environmental allergies.
People who suffer from these allergies may suffer from asthma or rhinitis, as a consequence of ingesting the allergens. Symptoms such as sneezing, itching, watery eyes, wheezing, etc. are common, but some people also experience red rashes on their neck. Allergies can result in headaches, fatigue, and even depression in some people.
People can become sick after being exposed to allergens. You can get some of these symptoms, but they can worsen other underlying conditions, like asthma. Depending on the severity of an allergy, it can be mild or life-threatening.
Tips for Managing Allergens
Taking out allergens by vacuuming is not enough in most cases, which is why professional assistance is usually necessary. These tips can help reduce allergen levels in homes or offices.
Tip #1
Place a doormat at each entry to your home or office. This will help trap dirt and debris before they have a chance to make their way into your house or office. Additionally, you should regularly dust and vacuum those areas. Also, ensure that the mats are cleaned regularly.
Tip #2
You should vacuum every week. You can easily remove dust, pet dander, dirt, and pollen from your home or office by doing this regularly. Consider using a HEPA filter vacuum cleaner. This type of vacuum can trap allergens. In normal vacuums, allergens are not caught. Also, change the vacuum bag frequently.
Tip #3
Keeping your pets clean and groomed is important if you own them. The fur will be cleaned and dander and other allergens will be removed.
Tip #4
It is important to replace furnace and air conditioning filters on time. Additionally, close your windows and doors as much as possible to prevent pollen and smog from entering your home or office.
Tip #5
As a final note, it's very important that you schedule a carpet cleaning service that provides allergy control along with carpet cleaning.
