Many people do not realise that some of the biggest sources of allergies are found inside the home rather than outdoors. Soft furnishings such as mattresses, couches, rugs and upholstered furniture naturally trap allergens deep within their fibres. These include dust mites, pet dander, pollen, mould spores and bacteria that build up over time.
Even when a home looks clean, these microscopic particles can remain hidden and continue to affect indoor air quality. Regular household cleaning often only removes surface dirt, while allergens stay embedded in fabrics where they are easily disturbed and released into the air.
Prolonged exposure to indoor allergens can contribute to allergy symptoms, asthma flare ups, poor sleep quality, respiratory discomfort and skin irritation. This is especially noticeable in children, people with sensitivities and households with pets.
Professional deep cleaning plays an important role in maintaining a healthier home environment. By removing allergens from deep within fabrics, it helps reduce their presence in the air and supports overall wellbeing.
For best results, mattresses, couches and upholstered furniture should be professionally cleaned every four to six months. This frequency helps prevent allergen buildup, improves indoor air quality and keeps your home feeling fresh, clean and safe.
