Even if you\u2019ve been outside for a minute or two, your shoes can still track dirt and grime onto your carpets and floors. Check pets for dirty paws or fur before letting them sprint back inside. Leave a towel at the door to remind everyone to clean them beforehand!<\/li>\n<li>Use a doormat, preferably acrylic material with a dark shade to hide the worst of the dirt while still being easy to clean. Clean your doormat regularly and remind guests to use it to shake off dirt or mud before entering your home.<\/li>\n<li>Use floor mats for areas where you are likely to spill or track in messes, such as the kitchen or bathroom.<\/li>\n<li>Pay attention to how long your doors and windows stay open, especially on windy days. You\u2019d be surprised by how much dust and dirt can blow into your home!<\/li>\n<li>When spills or stains occur, leave it to the professionals at ServiceMaster Complete Restoration by Stiffey.
