Odors. They are everywhere. When pleasant, we might call them “scents.” When not-so-pleasant, we might call them malodors.Odors are caused by a variety of sources. Some odors are pleasant, and welcoming, such as from a fresh-cut batch of flowers or a nice, home-cooked meal. Others are not pleasant, “malodorous,” such as from an unattended cat litter box or rotting garbage left too long in a trash bin.

I had an excellent experience with Kevin and Jathan of Bluegrass Carpet Cleaning. They arrived when they said they would and were polite, courteous and concerned that all my questions were answered to my satisfaction. They taught me about the process they employ to clean the areas that I wanted “refreshed”. I will definitely utilize their services in the future.
