5 Tips Keep The Curtains Of House Clean

Curtains and drapes, like any other exposed fabrics in your home, get dirty over time and require regular maintenance to keep them looking and smelling their best. They attract a lot of the odors in your home and also dust, which if not taken care of regularly can build up making it more difficult to clean in the long run.

# Washing your curtains regularly should not be considered a viable option since it is a time consuming task, and if done too often, will eventually damage your curtains. It is much better to regularly clean dust and dirt off your curtains and reduce the risk of them becoming entrenched with foul odors.

# Do not use a damp cloth as your cleaning tool on lightly colored curtains as you may end up rubbing the dirt into the fabric causing a discoloration.

# Keep an eye out for heavy stains on the curtain that may need a more complete wash.

# While you are doing your regular maintenance you may notice that your curtains need to be washed more thoroughly. One of the ways to give your curtain a deeper clean is to use the washing machine. Before doing this, however, make sure to check the label in order to see the manufacturer’s suggestions with regards to using a washing machine.

# The best practice here would be preventative maintenance. To do this you should keep your kitchen door closed while cooking to reduce the risk of odours seeping into your curtain.
