How can you take care of your Rugs?

 Prevention will always be better than curing in the case of carpets that require special care. In this article we will examine ways to safeguard your floor rug against their adversaries.





  • The elements of moisture and water

Water and moisture are the most destructive enemy to the rug, regardless of whether they’re wool, cotton or silk hair. To prevent mildew or mould, a rug should be completely and thoroughly dry and drip-free in the event that it has been washed with water. If it is not, then there’s still moisture. This is the reason the Rug World team recommends DRY CLEANING over wet.
  • Paint and Chemical Treatments and chemical Treatments

Spilt paint is one of the most unpleasant situations your rug could be faced with. It can happen all the time, but at times, it is difficult to solve without assistance from a professional. Utilize a piece of plastic, scrape the plastic as well as you can and use an old white cloth, soak it up as you can without rubbing.

In the event that your paint has water-soluble properties apply a small amount of club soda and then blot. Repeat the procedure as often as you are able to. Do not use bleach, soap or any other liquids for cleaning. If the stain appears healthy it is possible to speak with an expert.

  • Ultraviolet Light

Rugs are usually made from cheap synthetic dyes that may perform both. Also, the older artificial colors are usually very faded. Some of them can alter. If you experience long-lasting, intense sunlight through the windows. In this scenario, it’s possible to lower the strength of the UV (UV) Rays that cause the harm. In contrast you could apply an UV reduction film or replace the glass with UV protection panels.
  • Insects

Carpet beetles can be the enemy of carpets. If you spot insects moving around your space, they might be coming in from outside or perhaps some kind of obstacle within the home. In that case, check your closets and drawers. Carpet mats are tiny dark, reddish-brown, or blackish insects that originate from wool-eating and fibre larvae.

They think that the insects are similar to the smoke that they visit. They aren’t the ones doing the damage however the larvae of them do. They lay eggs on a variety of natural fibres such as silk, wool feathers, fur, feathers as well as leather. The hungry larvae that develop from eggs can cause significant harm. Most often, it is because of something that spilled onto the floor, such as milk or a sweet product that was not properly cleaned up. Other areas that are susceptible to insects include areas beneath furniture, which is quiet and dark that is not being walked over and seldom vacuumed.

The damage can be silent in these areas that are not visible, but may be able to move swiftly. Most of the time, this damage can be repaired however, if it is severe and repairs can be costly in comparison to the value for the rug. I hope you keep these tips in mind when you are shopping for the rug.
