1.	Q.	How to get candle wax out of your carpet?
	A.	Have you ever dropped a hot candle or just tipped a burning candle over? If so then you'll know just how horrible candle wax can be to your carpet. The stuff goes everywhere, and it hardens so quickly that you have just about no time to do anything about it. Once the candle was does harden, there is not much you can do about it, but I do have an easy solution for you. It's a common problem that many people seem to be having, but no one really knows just how easy it is to solve. Let me first say that this solution will involve using a hot iron, so you should be careful at all times. Simply take a clothes iron heated to a high temp and a very wet hand towel or large washcloth preferably white. Lay the wet towel (nearly soaking wet but not dripping) on top of the wax spot and apply the iron. Allow to stand for 10 – 15 seconds checking frequently to ensure you are not melting the carpet. The heat will melt the wax and draw it into the towel. Turn the towel frequently and repeat the process until wax spot is gone.


2.	Q.	How to get red Kool Aid stain out of your carpet?
	A.	If you have kids then you have faced this problem many times. The secret to getting that stubborn “red stain” out of your carpet is really quite simple and is something you can try using common household products. Much like getting wax out of your carpet the secret to removing the “red stain” involves heat. So grab a clothes iron and a very wet white hand towel and this time you’ll need to add a 3rd tool to your arsenal which is a clear glass cleaner. What I’m talking about is a product such as Windex which is typically BLUE but can be found in the clear version which is what you want. I REPEAT-- DO NOT USE A PRODUCT THAT IS COLORED such as the blue Windex. This will cause your home remedy to be disaster and will result in your “red stain” becoming a blue mess. The clear window cleaner should have a high ammonia content which is the key to the success of this procedure. With these three ingredients (iron, wet towel & clear window cleaner) apply a generous amount of the window cleaner to the stain, lay the wet towel on top and then apply the iron and allow to stand for 10-15 seconds. I again caution that the towel should be very wet almost to the point of dripping. This will ensure you do not melt your carpet under the heat of the iron. Rotate the towel periodically and repeat the process. The towel will become stained YELLOW to BROWNISH as the “red stain” is transferred to the towel from the carpet. You will not be able to reuse the towel in the future so use something you don’t mind tossing out after you are finished.


3.	Q	How to clean up most food & drink spills?
	A.	Carpeting is a big investment, and constant care is needed to keep it looking like new. This is always true, but it can be uniquely important when money is tight. In tough economic times, many people are unable to spend money on new flooring. Many others are facing difficulties selling the home in which they live. This makes it especially important to keep carpets in good shape to make them last and keep a home looking fresh and clean. General Carpet Stain Removal Information For spills on carpeting, acting quickly is essential. Liquid stains should be blotted, rather than rubbed. Rubbing works stains in further and may harm the carpet. Using clean white rags for blotting, working from the outside edge of the spot toward the center is effective. Once as much of the liquid is absorbed as possible, the following tips may help remove any remaining mess. Homemade Spot Removers for Liquid Carpet Spills A general carpet stain-removal formula is: “Stir one teaspoon of liquid dish detergent into a quart of warm water. Add ¼ teaspoon of white vinegar.” Dishwasher detergent should not be used, as this can harm carpet. Allowing this solution to soak into a stain for 10 minutes before blotting will improve results greatly. Another all-purpose homespun solution recommended by the Carpet and Rug Institute is one part white vinegar to two parts water. For a small stain, this would mean one cup vinegar mixed with two cups of water. This solution can be mixed in advance, labeled, and stored in a spray bottle for quick action when a spill happens. Dynamic Carpet Care strongly discourages the use of over the counter carpet spotters and warns that many of these can in fact do far greater damage to your carpet than good. When a home solution does not work a call to our office for a good professional cleaning will certainly do the trick and add years of service and good looks to your carpet. Professional cleaning by a certified IICRC Firm (LIKE DYNAMIC CARPET CARE) is recommended by your carpets manufacturer on at least an annual basis if not more frequent depending on use.


4	Q.	How to choose a carpet cleaner?
	A.	Start by choosing the method of carpet cleaning you feel is best for you and your situation. We recommend Steam Cleaning as this is the method of cleaning that is recommended by leading carpet manufacturers such as Mohawk and Shaw Industries. We just believe they know carpet better than anyone and at Dynamic Carpet Care we know STEAM CLEANING when done properly produces excellent results. I’ve always been a big believer in word of mouth! I trust my friends to lead me in the right direction and if they have something positive to say about a service provider whatever service that may be I tend to believe them particularly if they had a positive experience. Many of our customers report having learned about our company through a satisfied client and we value that referral and want to do all we can to keep them cheerleading Dynamic Carpet Care in the Tulsa Metro area. Do some research on the company before hiring them to perform services. Trust cannot be over-rated when it comes to inviting a stranger into your home to perform services and a reputable company these days is likely going to have a website that should provide some very valuable information about the company and its employees. We background check and drug test our employees despite the fact that I’ve known them for 12+ years and we’re not afraid to post our staff’s (insert hyperlink to staff page) pictures and some personal information about them that will enable you to see and potentially select the technician you’d like to have come to your home. BE SAFE and do your homework.


5	Q.	What to do when pet accidents happen?
	A.	With 6 in 10 homes nationwide now having at least one pet the inevitable is bound to occur and knowing what to do can help reduce the long term negative effects of pet accidents on your homes carpet and indoor air quality. Urine is made up of 95% water and the remaining 5% contains things such as uric acid, salt, ammonia and many other biohazards. When urine is permitted to dry without being cleaned up an interesting thing happens. The salt that is present in the urine crystallizes on the carpet fiber and encases things such as ammonia and uric acid. The ammonia is responsible for the odor that urine leaves behind and the uric acid is often associated with the yellow discoloration of the carpet itself. These pesky salt crystals are not easily broken down to release these contaminates. Water & detergent alone will not do the trick. So what can you do to prevent this from happening? When a pet accidents occur use a dry towel to soak up as much of the urine as possible. Try laying the towel over the spill and stepping on it. The more you get up the less likely you’ll have problems with these salt crystals forming when the spot dries. Next mix a 1:1 ration of water and white vinegar. Apply generously to urine spot and repeat step one above. Each time you reapply the water/vinegar mix you should be diligent to remove as much of the liquid as you can. This rinsing action will remove the urine and its potion of odor/stain causing ingredients before they have the chance to form the salt crystals. If the spot has dried all is not lost………… We have some very scientific yet simple means of handling these spots that can virtually eliminate them no matter what state they are in. We use an enzyme product that is literally a micro-organism that feeds on these salt crystals and consumes them to rid your carpet of the odor and in most cases the discoloration. These enzymes are applied to freshly cleaned carpet when you have your carpets serviced by our professional team of carpet, upholstery and tile cleaning technicians. They have all been certified by the IICRC in odor control and know the most effective means of eliminating pet odors in your homes interiors.


6	Q.	What to do when water damage occurs?
	A.	Whether it be from a broken pipe, ruptured water heater, toilet malfunction or storm related water damage is something that most people face very infrequently. The lack of previous experience with such situations often leaves people doing the only thing they can think of which is running to the garage to grab the shop vac. Below are some helpful hints and tips as to what you can and should do when water damage occurs. Eliminating the source of the water is of course the primary objective. Once this is done trying following these procedures to ensure damage is kept to a minimum. DO Immediately contact a Dynamic Carpet Care and get our certified professionals on the way. Remove items from floor in affected area such as books, magazines, clothing as these items could lead to permanent stains as dyes and inks tend to bleed when they become wet. Lift drapes using clothing hangers and suspend from curtain rods to prevent damage to the sometimes costly furnishings as well as the flooring they come in contact with. Remove rugs from carpeting as well as these will also likely bleed when they become wet. Open closet doors and other room doors to facilitate air circulation. Turn on air conditioning in the summer to assist in lowing humidity levels in structure. This will prevent secondary damage from occurring as doors swell and moist conditions in confined spaces can lead to a host of other non-desirable problems. Place aluminum foil between furniture legs and wet surfaces to protect both flooring and furniture DO NOT Attempt to remove water using shop vac or other electric appliance as serious injury or death could result from cord being submerged in water. Use appliances and electrical equipment such as TV’s that are located in affected areas. Turn on ceiling fans and overhead lights if ceiling is wet. Use heating and cooling system if floor ducts have water in them Delay calling Dynamic Carpet Care to restore your water damage areas. Time is of the essence!
