Rug and carpeting trap various contaminants that you don’t want to breathe in, whether you have children or pets running about or are just tracking dirt from your shoes into your home.
Natural carpet cleaning is gaining in popularity because of the many benefits it offers. Here are some of the finest—and simplest, in terms of substances employed—non-toxic cleaning methods for your carpet.

Water + Vinegar
Grab a large spray bottle, start with two parts water to one part vinegar, and add the salt for good measure! Mix it all in an appropriate container before using it as desired. This recipe is pretty simple, so don’t worry if you forget something or have too much leftover; adjust accordingly at hand until everything “cooks” perfectly.
To combine:
- Shake the bottle.
- Spray your distressed area or the whole carpet with it.
- Allow drying before vacuuming over the spot.
Baking Soda + Vinegar + Water
First, merely sprinkle baking soda over the stained area. If you want extra deodorizing power, mix in a few drops of colorless fragrance oil. Allow the baking soda to sit on top of the stain for at least an hour before brushing it away
.
In a spray bottle, combine equal amounts of Vinegar and water. Spray it over the baking soda and allow it to fizz. After the fizzing action has subsided, clean the area with a soft cloth to remove any residue. For stubborn stains, you should repeat the procedure several times.
Salt + Borax + Vinegar
Combine equal parts salt, borax, and Vinegar in a small dish or another container to begin. You’ll end up with a paste that you then spread over your carpet.
If you’re not using gloves, you should at least wash your hands frequently throughout the cleanup. Gloves will help to minimize both the spread of germs from the stain-causing material (please do not touch bodily fluids bare-handed) and your skin contact with borax, which may be an irritant.
Allow the paste to sit until it’s dried after applying it to the stained area. Any children or pets in your home should not eat the solution. Then clean away any residue with a vacuum. If the stain is still visible even after you’ve removed the paste, dampen a towel and scrub it gently. Vacuum again once the water has evaporated, just in case.
