After deodorizing, it's time to clean household textiles. Take nonwashable clothing and draperies to a dry cleaner for traditional dry cleaning or a special cleaning process.  Wash regular clothing in warm water with a liquid detergent.  Several launderings may be needed.  Have carpets cleaned twice—both before and after repairs. Wet carpets must be dried before cleaning. In some cases, removal of carpet is necessary for complete drying and to save the wood floor beneath.
