It’s a wild, outdoor cat that insists on using my door mat for a bathroom. I don’t want to eliminate the rug so is there anything I can put down that will keep it away?

Other than fabric, what attracts carpet beetles and what can they eat? If I hide anything that attracts them, would less of them come?

My clothes are protected in my drawers, but there are still many carpet beetles (alive and dead) found in my room.

One fourth of the rug has faded over about 1/4 of the area in one quadrant. The fading is difficult to see at night under normal lights but stands out during the day when looked at an angle to give an idea of the degree..

Is there some sort of treatment for these rugs that will bring back the color and make it consistent?
dflk thats funny. Not a kittty kitty persian a like, magic flying carpet persian… oh nevermind

What should I be looking for in terms of quality? How do you tell if a rug is the real deal? Is there any pattern or color scheme that is more valuable. I am not buying it to sell, but want a good rug. Thanks.

I purchased a beautiful wool rug last summer to put over my laminate flooring. It sheds like crazy, and we constantly have large tufts of wool floating about on the rest of the floor. Is there something I can do to stop the shedding? If not, will it eventually stop at some point? I’m starting to believe I purchased a 5×7 mistake!!

Most products seem to be designed to stop a rug slipping on a wood/laminate floor….

I know this rug is old and great quality. My Aunt gave it to me and I would like to know how to know something. She was ill when they were giving to the family.

My sister-in-law gave us a lovely rug as a house warming gift 10 years ago. I prefered using the old wash and rinse method of cleaning it. It wasn’t anything very expensive but it was, is, lovely.

I lifted it to wash and store away for the summer but was saddened to see a thick layer of yellow dust like stuff exactly where the rug was laying. It seems the bottom layer of the rug has aged and is crumbling away into dust.

Is there anything I can do to save it?

I have a 5×7 rug that continually gets wrinkles in it! Its annoying to trip over them, does anyone have a solution for this?
