We often neglect items and spaces that we use the most — in this case, it would be the sofa. Learning how to clean a sofa is essential as it's used quite often in the home. Whether that's for moments of relaxation as you switch on your favorite television show or if you're wining and dining with guests.
A sofa can often gather dust, and lose its color through spills and stains. This is why it is important to give it some attention, care and a good scrub down once in a while. "It’s important to clean our couches regularly for several reasons, but preventing the spread of bacteria is a good one. If your couch cushions zip off, we recommend throwing them in the wash at least once a month," says Marla Mock, cleaning expert and president of Molly Maid, a Neighborly company. "Not only will it keep your couch looking new and smelling fresh, but you’ll have a much more sanitary surface to lay your head on each time you settle down to watch a movie. Between the muddy paws, sticky hands and food particles, your couch is trapping contaminants that could irritate your skin."
