Remove Pollen Stains Effectively Without Damaging the Carpet

 

Flowers are a wonderful gift from nature. Flowers kept at home, especially white lilies, add to the freshness, lift your mood, eliminate harmful toxins, and create a sense of positivity in your home. However, as the lily flowers age, they start shedding pollen grains. The lily pollen grains can leave yellow, orange, and brown coloured stains on clothes and of course, your carpet at home. Removing pollen stains from carpets is not easy.

If pollen grains have caused stains on your carpet, you need to start the treatment for carpet stain removal immediately before letting those stains become permanent.

Equipment and Chemicals You Will Need for Carpet Stain Removal

  • Sticky tape
  • Vacuum cleaner
  • Dry cleaning solvent (rubbing alcohol)
  • Oxygen-based bleach
  • White cloths

Before you Begin

  • Prior to removing pollen stains by using any chemical, it is important to first test the chemical (cleaning solvent/solution) on a small unnoticeable portion of the carpet to ensure that it does not discolour it.

Step-by-Step Process to Remove Pollen Stains from Carpet

Use a vacuum to remove the pollen grain

  • The first step of carpet cleaning in Melbourne is removing the pollen grain using a vacuum cleaner.
  • The vacuum cleaner must be held close to the pollen so that it can be picked up using suction.
  • Care must be taken not to touch the pollen grain with the vacuum nozzle.
