Seasonal Cleaning of Rugs

Do you know that rugs are easier to carry outdoors for cleaning and airing if you roll them up first? You probably know this, if you habitually do some seasonal cleaning. But I hope this tip will come in handy for those who have not tried it yet.

If you happen to own delicate rugs, make sure you roll them with the right side out to avoice crushing the delicate pile. Sturdy rugs can be rolled right side in.

Always air the rugs on a surface that is flat, such as a wooden deck or a driveway just to do away from having your rugs become distorted. A shady spot will be the best because direct sunlight will cause for the delicate colors of the rugs to fade.




Occasionally vacuum the padding and the floor beneath an area rug.
