Wool rugs vary in appearance, color, size— plus, they last a long time and can be hypoallergenic. Because of their durability, they can handle a long lifetime of traffic, unlike more gentle rug materials. While these rugs help spruce up your home and protect your floors, they can be difficult to maintain. So how do you care for your wool rugs? Immaculate Home Chem-Dry knows the answer, and our rug cleaning in Torrance, CA, areas can help!
Shaking Out Dirt & Dust Weekly Is Key
The simplest way to maintain a wool rug is to shake it out every week. This removes a lot of the dirt and dust which prevents them from getting encased in the rug’s fibers. This is also a great way to fluff out your rug and restore its volume!
Never Use Any Harsh Chemicals or Cleaning Methods
Whether you’re using a stain removal product or DIY rug cleaning method, we recommend using a gentle approach with your wool rugs. For instance, use minimal amounts of water and never scrub the wool fibers to remove stains on your wool rugs. Using too much water on wool rugs may leave watermarks and scrubbing can break the wool fibers. Instead, take a little bit of warm water and wool-safe detergent to the area and spot clean, brushing the detergent/water mix in a gentle back and forth motion. Follow this by adding a minimal amount of lukewarm water to eliminate any soap that remains. Remember, that wool rugs (and any other type of rug) require a professional rug cleaning in Torrance, CA every so often. Whether it be Persian, silk, or wool, your rug is an investment, and you want it to last!
