🧼 How to Care for Wool Blend Rugs – Cleaning & Maintenance Guide 🏡

🔍 Keep your Fibreworks wool blend rug looking beautiful for years! Follow these simple care instructions to maintain its durability, softness, and stain resistance.

🧹 1. Regular Vacuuming

• Vacuum your wool blend rug at least once a week to remove dust, dirt, and debris.
• Use a vacuum with adjustable suction to prevent excessive fiber pull.
• Avoid using a beater bar or rotating brush, as these can damage the fibers over time.

🚫 2. Spot Cleaning for Spills & Stains

• Blot spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth—never rub, as this can spread the stain.
• Use a mild wool-safe detergent mixed with water for gentle stain removal.
• For tougher stains, try a white vinegar and water solution (1:1 ratio).
• Always test cleaning solutions on a small, hidden area before applying.

💨 3. Deep Cleaning & Professional Care

• Have your wool blend rug professionally cleaned every 12-18 months to remove deep-seated dirt and oils.
• If washing at home, use a wool-safe rug cleaner and avoid over-wetting the fibers.
• Air dry thoroughly in a well-ventilated area to prevent mildew.

🌞 4. Rotate for Even Wear

• Rotate your rug every 6 months to ensure even wear and prevent fading from sunlight exposure.
• If placed in a sunny area, consider using UV-protective window coverings to maintain color vibrancy.

🏠 5. Protect from Heavy Furniture

• Use rug pads underneath to extend the rug’s lifespan and prevent slipping.
• Place furniture coasters under heavy furniture legs to avoid indentations and wear.

❄️ 6. Proper Storage for Longevity

• If storing your rug, roll it with the pile facing inward to maintain its shape.
• Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture.
• Use a breathable fabric cover, not plastic, to allow air circulation.

🐾 7. Pet & Odor Control

• For pet hair, use a rubber brush or vacuum attachment designed for wool rugs.
• To neutralize odors, sprinkle baking soda, let it sit for 15 minutes, then vacuum.
• If accidents occur, clean promptly with an enzyme-based cleaner safe for wool.
