Try Herbal Carpet Washing methods 

Carpetthailand uses its legendary carpet washing process called “herbal carpet washing”. In herbal carpet washing, the carpets are washed with homemade herbal detergents. Similarly, we make these herbal solutions with the help of our generation old recipes. We mix the ingredients such as olives, rose petal, apricot skin, thyme, vinegar, etc. and keep the mixture in a warm room. It takes around 12 weeks to these solutions prepared. For giving these homemade detergents antibacterial properties, we use a citrus peel, and for aromatic aspects, we use small quantities of herbal essential oils.  Every solution has its magic and impacts, so we make sure that we thoroughly understand the carpet, its type, kind of material, size, and age, etc. before letting it go for a wash.
