How to Maintain Wool Berber Carpets

Wool Berber carpets are widespread and often preferred over Berber carpets made of other fibers and materials. These type of carpets require constant care if you want to enjoy them for many years. It is important to treat stains and dirt quickly before they set in the wool, otherwise it would be much harder, even impossible in some cases to remove the stains because of the tight loops that Berber carpets have.

In order to maintain your wool Berber carpet properly, carpet cleaning Soho suggests the following steps.

Instructions

1. Place a door mat in front of the entrance of your home, so people can wipe their shoes on the door mat before entering. This way a large amount of the dirt tracked from outside will be reduced.
2. Make a rule for your family and yourself as well not to ware shoes while in the house. You would be surprised how long your Berber carpet could look clean before it needs cleaning.
3. Vacuum your Berber carpet weekly using a vacuum cleaner with an adjustable rotating brush bar to avoid causing wear and tear on the carpet.
4. Clean up any stains from your carpet by blotting them with a mixture of equal parts of water and white vinegar. Rubbing alcohol is a good alternative to white vinegar, according to carpet cleaning Soho, and you can use it in the mixture if you don't have any white vinegar available at home.
5. Once you have removed the stain, dab at the area with a damp cloth to rinse the solution out of the carpet. Do not pour water directly on the Berber carpet as it would be hard to extract it.
