Dee Dee asked:

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.

Gladiater asked:

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

andy miller asked:

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.

Erika asked:

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!!

Fellina asked:

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?

zianneaaliyah asked:

I tried to hire a carpet cleaning company, but they told me they can’t get rid of juice stains. Then I was told by someone that they can get rid of juice stains. But I don’t know who to believe? I don’t want to waste money on a service if they can’t get rid of them. I was thinking about just buying a small piece of carpet similiar to the color and texture of my carpet and cutting out the juice stains and replacing them with the small piece of carpet. Let me know what idea is the best or if you have any suggestions please feel free to share. Any information will be very well apprieciated. Thank you.
