Area rugs are often used to protect floors and carpets, but that is no reason not to give your area rugs all the care and protection you can, too!
  • Vacuum your area rugs or shake out regularly so that dirt and grit do not sift into the roots of the fibers.
  • Avoid walking on the fringed area of the rug.
  • From time to time, indulge your area rug with a professional cleaning.
  • As with any rug or carpet, don't let spills have a chance to set. Blot them up quickly. Don't rub or scrub.
  • If you spill a liquid on your rug that is water-based (such as gravy, wine or whatever), you can carefully and QUICKLY clean the rug. Use a mild, bleach-free detergent, diluted with water. Always remember this tried and true cleaning tip: blot from the edge of the spot to the center. Don't blot from the center out because that will spread the spill. To dry, blot with a clean dry cloth. You may also want to lift the rug so air can circulate until it is dry. If you spill an oil-based substance on the rug, contact a professional.
