What do we use that separates us from others?
At almost every carpet-cleaning job we do at Green Owl, be it residential or commercial, we are asked by curious onlookers what we are throwing on the carpet. The solution we use to clean is called HOST. At Green Owl we call it our “magic fairy dust.” It looks like brown sugar and feels like a humid sawdust. HOST is a citrusy-pine-scented, plant based, non-toxic cleaner that encapsulates the dirt and other materials in carpets. These materials are then extracted by high-powered vacuum.
It resembles sawdust in texture and contains a teaspoon of water per square foot. It bears a striking resemblance to the pink stuff they used to cover vomit in elementary school. It is a product that was created over 60 years ago in Racine, Wisconsin. It wasn’t until recently that a machine was designed to maximize its use as a carpet cleaner.
Not only does HOST clean carpets (and grout) better than traditional methods, but it has some hidden benefits as well.

Research has shown that using Host reduces:
- Dust mites by 78%
- Dust mite allergens by 75%
- Mold Spores by 85%
- Cat Allergens by 85%
On the other hand, traditional steam carpet cleaners, leave over one third of the water they use to clean in the carpets!! This encourages mold development, allergen spores, and wreaks havoc not only on the carpets, but also on the floor beneath.
In addition to the aforementioned, the beauty of using magic fairy dust is that it leaves the carpets dry and ready for immediate use, and it is Green Seal Certified, meaning it:
