hello,
i am waiting on my kittens results to see if they have ringworm- although an educated guess tells me it is likely. i will need to start a deep clean of my environment. a number of rooms are carpeted, annoyingly so- is there a steam cleaner that is good for upholstery and at a push, carpets? i read that the heat from steam is good at killing the spores but most steam cleaners i come across are mainly designed for hardwood floors, cannot seem to find any other than useless looking tiny ones for fabric/upholstery.
any ideas appreciated. already exhausted at the potential protocols that are coming my way..

Re: ringworm
I've never dealt with ringworm but if you are looking for a steam cleaner, type "best steam cleaner for upholstery and carpet" into Google or any search engine ignore the advertisements and read the reviews.
Have a look at this site

I can't tell by what you have written whereabouts you are but that is a UK site
They are not cheap to buy so make sure you are looking at a machine that can do all the surfaces including and carpets and upholstery.
Enquire about renting one as you might not ever need one again that way you might get to use a very expensive machine for just a one-off rental fee
