But before putting on that favorite holiday sweater, it's time to prepare for the clean-up before guests arrive at your home and possible messes that could interrupt the joyful jubilee. Luckily, Rug Doctor, the leading do-it-yourself carpet cleaning brand, has some great tips for party and guest preparation. &#13; &#13; </p> <p id="" class="">&#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; When playing host this holiday season, mark these off your check list before guests arrive: &#13; &#13; </p> <p id="" class="">&#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; -- First run-through: Walk through your home to remove clutter and give your main living areas a good dusting. &#13; &#13; </p> <p id="" class="">&#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; -- Preparing your home: Before guests arrive, give your carpet a deep-down clean with a Rug Doctor machine and special cleaning products like Rug Doctor Oxy-Steam(R) Carpet Cleaner. Not only will it freshen your home, but your guests will be impressed with your attention to detail. Be sure not to overlook your upholstery. You can use the Rug Doctor Upholstery Cleaner with the Upholstery Hand Tool to clean draperies, sofa cushions, pillows and more. &#13; &#13; </p> <p id="" class="">&#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; -- Guests with allergies: Help your guests avoid those dreadful indoor allergies and enjoy the winter season by reducing their allergens with Rug Doctor's newly introduced Anti-Allergen Formula. &#13; &#13; </p> <p id="" class="">&#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; -- Pets on the guest list: Coordinate with whoever is bringing pets to make sure there will be food and toys to entertain the pets. Don't forget the right supplies to clean-up pet messes! Rug Doctor recommends using Rug Doctor Pet Formula Carpet Cleaner for a deep-down clean or try using the Rug Doctor Urine Eliminator for your in-between or spot-cleaning needs. &#13; &#13; </p> <p id="" class="">&#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; -- Inevitable stains: There will most likely be some sort of stain at your party -- whether it is red wine or candle wax -- so prepare for it all. And remember, never scrub stains; blot carefully with a sponge or paper towel and use the appropriate cleaner such as Rug Doctor's Spot &amp; Stain Remover. It's a great product to keep on hand. &#13; &#13; </p> <p id="" class="">&#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; -- Avoid musical chairs: Make sure you have enough seating for your guests. Set out chairs conveniently where people will most likely congregate (such as the living room). Have two or three extra chairs for unexpected guests. &#13; &#13; </p> <p id="" class="">&#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; -- Coat check: Designate a portable coat rack, or keep a coat closet near the front door open for guests to hang their coats. Make sure there are enough hangers for your expected number of guests. &#13; &#13; </p> <p id="" class="">&#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; For more tips on holiday party and guest preparation, as well as general cleaning tips for a cleaner, healthier home, visit &#13; http://www.rugdoctor.com/media-room.html . &#13; &#13; </p> <p id="" class="">&#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; About Rug Doctor &#13; &#13; </p> <p id="" class="">&#13; &#13; &#13; &#13; Rug Doctor cleaning systems have earned the prestigious Platinum Seal of Approval from the Carpet and Rug Institute.
