Important Tips for Cleaning a Wool Area Rug

The woolen area carpet is a big investment, and you certainly want to stay clean and in good condition. There are several ways that you can maintain your carpet, and handle spills when it happens. The first thing to mention here is that you really have to suck your carpet once a week. You can consider the professional area rug cleaning for cleaning the area rugs in your office or home.

Dust and ground particles filter into the carpet and will wear them from the upper floor unless you keep sucking dust regularly. It is also a good idea to have your area carpet cleaned professionally once a year. But between the time, here is how to clean it.

In the case of spills: if there is something spilled in your woolen area carpet, the first thing you need to do is absorb as much fluid, use a towel or paper towel. Press the towel into the carpet, and only use a lightweight circular movement to wake up as much as possible spills. 

Scrubbing is too hard it will also damage the stack. After that, your best bet is to use a commercial carpet cleaning kit. You want to get it that uses very little foam and water. You should not use 'Oxy Clean' on your wool carpet because this product is not intended for natural fibers. You have to avoid powder cleaners too because powder enters the stack of carpets and can cause later.

Wash your carpet at home: it's possible, if you are very careful, to wash your carpet at home. You need to take the carpet outside and put it in a clean area that is paved in several ways. Then you can wet the carpet with a hose. Place a light cleanser into a bucket of water and stir until you make a foam. Then, with a sponge, gently apply foam to the carpet. Never rub loudly or grind foam to the fiber, on the contrary, pat foam to the stack.
