The Dangers of Dirty Curtains

Robert Anderson from Curtain Clean Hamilton

They can add a sense of personality and lift up the atmosphere of your home without spending a fortune on redecorating. Most people tend to forget about their curtains when cleaning other home interior accessories, such as carpets. Little did you know, curtains can cause serious harm to your health if left unattended for long periods of time.

1. CURTAINS ACCUMULATE ALLERGENS AND DUST MITES

Curtain fabrics can often attract a lot of allergens and dust. These are the two main causes of allergic reactions such as sneezing, coughing or runny noses. Due to their small size, they are easily carried by wind and accumulate on curtains after some time, especially curtains that are made from cotton. Some curtains are worse offenders when it comes to dust accumulation, particularly those made from thicker fabrics and multiple curtain layers in one. Allergens and dust mites are trapped between the layers and thus increase the chances of getting allergy symptoms. Removing the allergens hidden in your curtains can already help relieve allergy symptoms a lot without the help of meds.

2. MOULD AND MILDEW
Moulds can develop and grow in curtains, and they are most likely to thrive in a dirty curtain. Mould growth is something that can’t be ignored, and immediate curtain cleaning should happen since it can cause potentially dangerous health problems and puts everyone in the home or commercial space at risk.

Some moulds can trigger asthma and other bronchial or respiratory issues. Most images are susceptible to disinfectants found in individual cleaning solutions, aside from many other possible diseases or health conditions.


It’s best to seek the help of professional curtain cleaners since formulations must be based on the kind of material your curtain was made from. The overall quality and craftsmanship deserve to be well-cared for with the right cleaning products and techniques.

3. GERMS

Germs are one of the main causes of sickness in both humans and pets. What most people don’t know is that they love attaching themselves to curtains (mainly those that are hung in dark areas).

4. DUST AND TOXINS

Curtains in all homes can collect dust and toxins quickly. Mainly if the curtain material is thick and lined. Does one of your family members at home suffer from regular asthma attacks or bronchitis? If your answer is yes, then the cause is probably hiding in your curtains.


CONCLUSION: CLEAN YOUR CURTAINS PERIODICALLYYour drapes may play an important role in enhancing the overall ambiance of your home. Proper maintenance of curtains becomes absolutely essential if you want to have a healthy indoor environment for yourself and your family.

Looking for beds!

Alesha from Maeroa

I thought I would ask here if anyone has any single or double beds they want to get rid of? I'm looking for our spare rooms for my niece and nephew. It's not too urgent but just having a look around. I don't have much of a budget, but happy to collect and even happier if it could be … View moreI thought I would ask here if anyone has any single or double beds they want to get rid of? I'm looking for our spare rooms for my niece and nephew. It's not too urgent but just having a look around. I don't have much of a budget, but happy to collect and even happier if it could be dropped off for an extra fee.

She has been my care giver for some 3 and a half years now since my leg amputations that have not resolved themselves into prosthetics. I had a brilliant meet with a good mate Steve today and between us we came up with a plan. I have been trying to find a social club for wheel chair people like myself here in Hamilton but it doesn't exist. So I want to invent that. Not just for myself and Debi but for other people in my situation and the people that care for them. Prince Harry gave me the inspiration with his Invictus Games and I would love to field a NZ team for that but small steps first. If anyone is interested or would like to support this idea I would be happy to hear from you. Come the New Year we could make a difference. Happy holidays. Doug

When I was student, I printed few flyers for computer repair and drop near by my neighbourhood. I had no car. I had opportunity to help them. Sometime they pay me extra, sometime they dropped me in their car and offered coffee.
