3 Ways for Keeping Your Office Carpet Clean

  
A carpet is an important addition any office space. It helps in softening up the harshest of flooring, which in turn helps in making the office a lot more comfortable. But traffic may play havoc with the office carpets. If you aren’t careful, you’ll soon have heaps of trash and dust mites on the carpet, which may make the working environment or the office space unhealthy in not time. Most of us in Chatswood tend to spend at least 7 or more hours at office. Spending so much of time in such an uncomfortable and unhealthy environment generally affects the productivity of work and makes the employees and visitors sick.

Regular cleaning of office carpets is undoubtedly a great job that can be done. For it you need to hire a professional company that offers commercial carpet cleaning service in Chatswood. However, if you think doing so you will not be able to save a lot of your money then you can set up some preventive measures for keeping the carpet clean on a regular basis.

Here are a few ways that you can implement in order to keep your office carpet clean.

Place area rugs wisely
Let area rugs be your friend if you want to keep the office carpet clean. Place them at the major entrances in the office. When placed here, they will act as a buffer zone. People will leave mud and most of dirt or even water that they carry from outside on the area rugs. Also place these materials in the high traffic areas in your office space like hallways and foyer, which generally get dirty easily because of huge traffic that passes through office space on a regular basis. 

Designate a specific space for eating

The drinks and food that we eat in our offices are the biggest contributors to the dirty carpets. A specific office space must be designated for eating and if possible avoid carpeting that area. The carpeted areas within the office must be designated as no drinking and no eating zones. You might not be able to enjoy 100% success with this kind of policy but at least you can discourage your staffs from the drink and food spills, which make the office carpets dirty. 

Keep dustbins within office

Keep dirt away from carpets by providing dustbins all over the office space. Having this will allow employees to keep the trash in those containers, thereby reducing the dirt, which may land on the carpet otherwise.

Contaminants in the data centre may lead to corrosion damage, overheating, mechanical and electrical failure of disk & tape drives, circuit boards and power supplies. So, having a clean data centre is very critical for maintaining the health of the data processing equipment. 

You can find many companies that specialises in cleaning data centres in Chatswood. Pharo Cleaning Services is one such professional cleaning service in Chatswood providing expert data centre cleaning. Their services are designed to keep the computer room safe and running smoothly. 

Equipment surface cleaning 

Periodic cleaning of skins or exterior shells of computer room equipment, cabinets and workstations are done for the data centre to operate effectively. The cleaning techniques that are used safely removes dirt, fingerprints, smudges and tape residues. 

Interior server cabinet cleaning 

Server cabinet doors, surfaces of servers inside the cabinet and server exhaust fans are cleaned. These surfaces are basically vacuumed using filtered vacuums and then wiped by using an anti-static cleaner that's approved for data centre cleaning. 

Access floor tile surface cleaning 

This area needs a lot of attention. It is the space that receives foot traffic on a daily basis and so dust & debris are accumulated here overnight. Before starting to clean this area, the floor surface is not only mopped but vacuumed entirely. This is basically done to remove all dust & contaminants that are  present in that area. The floor is also pre-treated with cleaners that are environmentally friendly and safe to use, and then hand scrubbed. Just two neutral, damp mop rinse and the process completes providing an aesthetically pleasing as well as healthier environment. 

Ceiling cleaning 

This includes overhead cleaning. So, while ceiling cleaning either the drop ceiling tiles are vacuumed using filter vacuums that's appropriate for data centres or overhead raceways are vacuumed and wipe cleaned with the right anti-static cleaners.  

Subfloor vacuuming 

The sub floor is cleaned by vacuum cleaners. Detailed cleaning encompasses vacuuming all the sub floor surfaces, top portion of pedestals, top of stringers & under cables. Special attention is given to perforated air flow panels as well, because that's the main area through which contaminants enter  the sub floor. Each panel is carefully removed from support grid and cleaned thoroughly. 

Subfloor track cloth wipe down 

After vacuuming the sub floor area thoroughly, the pedestals, base floor surface, cable troughs and stringers are wiped clean using a tack cloth that's lint free. Although the vacuum cleaners are able to remove most of the debris of sub floor, the track cloth is used to wipe down the sub floor further. This subfloor track cloth wipe down service is generally recommended for print facilities, post construction cleaning and spring cleaning.

How To Get Rid Of Ants In The House?

  

Doesn't it annoy you when you find ants crawling up your jam and cookie jars kept in your kitchen? Have you always wondered why your methods to eliminate ants from your house in Sydney failed most of the times? Many amongst us might not even be aware of the various natural as well as artificial remedies that can be applied and employed to stamp out those tiny pests from our houses all together.

It cannot be denied that ants have a critical role to play in the environment and are beneficial to humans in numerous ways. They act as exterminators of harmful pests like fleas, bedbugs, flies, spiders and clothes' moths. But this doesn't act as a consolation when ants sneak into our homes in search of food, shelter and protection from calamities such as rainstorms, floods, etc.

As the saying goes - 'Prevention is better than Cure', and keeping in mind the fact that some of us might not resort to killing ants, preventive measures to stop the entry of a rather nasty army of ants will seem more legitimate than terminative ones.

So, if you want to impede the ants from streaming in through the side of doors or crowding wall-cracks in your kitchen here are a few tips you can follow:

  • Seal off all jars containing sweet and sticky stuffs in the kitchen including jam jars, sauce bottles, honey containers, pickle bottles and the like.
  • Mop or vacuum the kitchen area on a regular basis, and wipe cabinets using vinegar/kerosene as these chemicals act as disinfectants.
  • After every meal, make sure not to leave out the dirty plates and dishes for a long time as they become a perfect feeding ground for ants.
  • Do not leave any food item uncovered in the kitchen.
  • Keep compost covered and enclosed.

If you're one of those whose house has already been infested by a colony of ants and you are at your wits trying to get rid of them, you'd be surprised to know that there are some excellent homemade remedies which are quite effective against ant attacks.

  • Strong scents and deodorants mess with their sense of smell. Putting cotton balls soaked with strong perfumes in the entryways of ants will help a lot in keeping them at bay.
  • There are some food stuffs that ants cannot digest and die, and cornmeal is the best among them. A mixture of 1 part sugar and 3 parts cornmeal can be used to lure ants to their doom.
  • Soapwater is also an effective remedy against ants as it breaks down into their exoskeleton and causes dehydration. All you need to do is spray some in the suspected areas.
  • Another cheap way to eradicate ants from the house is using salt water solution. Boil some salt water mixture and spray or sprinkle it near the stamping grounds of ants.
  • If you encounter a considerable number of ants in your kitchen or anywhere else around the house, sprinkle scented talcum over them and watch them dissipate away.
  • Close up the tiny cracks in walls using petroleum jelly or putty as ants often build nests inside them.
  • Lemon juice is also an efficient ant-repellent. Sprinkle lemon juice mixed with water over the nests and breeding grounds of ants.

If you want you can also get in touch with a professional company that offers pestservices in North Shore for ant control & removal in your home.
